Re: Understanding tides for boat launch from marina

Fantastic - thanks for the info Clive.
To drain the carb of fuel do I literally detach the fuel hose from the engine and let it run dry until the engine stops? Thanks again!

Re: Understanding tides for boat launch from marina

Great - thanks everyone for your help.

Re: Where to launch inflatable boat in Kent?

Thank you for the quick reply, much appreciated. So if I understand correctly it sounds like I won't be able to launch the boat from the beach in the Canterbury area, but maybe in the Ramsgate area? Does anyone have any info re: launching a boat in areas such as Whitstable or maybe even further down...
