Slipways
      #1853833 - 10/05/2008 10:18

Hi all,
Are there any public slipways between Penarth and Porthcawl that No 2 son can use for his speedy boat?
Cheers
Dave

There is Penarth but you need to pay the council, Barry is the same or Sully but i think there seems to be a lot of theft from cars there. This was going back a few years though. Best place is Cardiff Bay at the community centre. OR join CBYC or CYC

You can launch dinghys at Port Eynon on the Gower across the beach.The carpark is by the slipway down onto the beach.
