Over-night storage, launch and recovery of gigs

Overnight storage of gigs on trailers is at the secure area of Weymouth Port, behind the Pavilion Theatre. This is available on Friday, Saturday and Sunday night.

Launch and recovery of gigs will take place from the Public Slipway close to Debenhams and the multi storey car park on the Inner Harbour.

Trailers must be returned to the secure area of the port after unloading.

Towing vehicles will be provided with a free parking permit allowing them to park at either the Pavilion car park next to the secure area or in the Nothe Gardens car parks. The permit will be issued by the club member on duty at the slipway.

Coxens please note:

• the Town Bridge opens on the even hour throughout the day and at these times the area around the bridge can be very busy.
• There are rowing ferries (small boats), crossing the harbour just downstream of the lifeboat.

The changeover pontoons will be situated on the south side of the outer harbour beneath the Nothe Fort.
