Clifden Summer 2016

Peter O'Sullivan · August 07, 2016, 22:24:00

Good weekend in Clifden despite the terrible weather. Borrowed the red UCD Citroen Dispatch. Worked fairly well. The van can take 6 playboats comfortably, or 3 creekers. The van used 67.27 euro of fuel for the weekend, we drove 676km. We could have taken the vet school van with the fibreglass tanking but I opted for the slightly smaller Citroen.

I used to say Clifden worked from 4.5m tides and upwards but I'm not thinking that 4.4m tides would be good. The regular campsite now has fairly good wifi, fast enough to watch training videos between sessions.

Also the Aasleagh gauge is online http://waterlevel.ie/0000032060/0001/week/ , guessing it needs to be 1.2m to run.

Clifden was as great as ever, just lacking in the aul numbers eh? I reckon we should get one big group Clifden trip before colleges start.

I propose everyone heads down for the 2,3 and 4th of September, tides are high that weekend. Anyone up for it ðŸ˜

This weekend still going down in Cliften, is there enough people? I'd be interested in going if others are?
Late Friday though ideally! [emoji16]
