Welcome to the 4th Neyland CMBA Rally. Neyland Yacht Club (NYC) and Neyland Marina (NM), have kindly invited CMBA members as their guests, offering fantastic venues for an extended weekend-midweek of boating on the 24 miles of navigable tidal water of the Cleddau Estuary leading from St Ann’s Head to Neyland Point and River Cleddau from Neyland Point to Haverfordwest. With plenty of places of interest along the way, including: Pembrokeshire National Park, Irish Ferry Port at Pembroke Dock, Milford Haven Tanker Terminals, Milford Haven Marina, various Pubs, Cafes and Restaurants.

The Cleddau Estuary doesn't have a speed limit, so is also used as the venue for formula powerboat championships, ski racing and numerous dinghy and yacht races throughout the year. There is however a 3 knot (no wash) limit along the shoreline and the upper reaches of the River Cleddau, marked with yellow buoys. NM offers allocated pontoon moorings, designated parking, for cars, trailers and motorhomes, shower and toilet facilities, Manillas Cafe and The Bar, (restaurant) overlooking the marina. Adjoining is Dale Sailing with a chandlery, workshop, boat hoist and a fuel pontoon. NYC offers full use of their club house facilities, the newly refurbished Alumchine bar & restaurant, with a great veranda with uninterrupted views across the Cleddau Estuary. Launching of boats, via the public slipway to the side of NYC. Neyland town offers several supermarkets, takeaways, a chemist and fuel station. Green Park - Camping and Caravanning Club for overnight motorhomes and trailer parking.

Saturday: Entry & registration to NM from 09:00, park trailers & cars as directed by NM. Prepare boats in readiness for launching, catch up with CMBA members and join in with an informal safety briefing. Once set up, assist each other for launching, in the traditional CMBA way. Make way to your allocated pontoon moorings in NM. Meet at Manillas Cafe for an informal safety briefing.Then heading off East a 4 mile trip to the inlet, leading to the Cresswell River. Just a short way up is Lawrenny Yacht Station, then on to the Lawrenny Arms for lunch (pontoon moorings) or to the Quayside, for afternoon tea and cake. Just south of the inlet, the 3 knot (no wash) limit starts, marked by yellow buoys.
