All fuel must be in approved storage
containers and kept in a secure place. Spill
kits and fire extinguishers will be located in

Camper Park
The camper park is now full so unless you have already put your name on the list, you will have to
find alternative accommodation. Note there is strictly NO parking of cars in the camper park –
there is a pay and display car park directly to the side of the camper park.
There is a free car park is located by the boat pits across the road from the camper park. There is
strictly no overnight sleeping allowed in the free car park and there is a height restriction barrier
at the entrance.
Please ensure you have your payment for your camper pitch on arrival – you will be given a notice to be shown in the
window of your vehicle for the duration of your stay.
Welfare Facilities
There is a water tap should any camper require a top up. Showers and toilets are located at the Mountbatten Centre.
Please note there is no water or electricity in the boat pits.
Speed on the water in Plymouth Sound (Plymouth Harbour)
It is very important that anyone who is using their boats on the water outside of the actual physical published race times,
need to adhere to the speed limits of Plymouth Sound. Failure to do so may result in you being escorted off the water by
the harbour authorities who has the power to not allow you to race at the event. We, as race organisers and competitors,
would like to demonstrate to the QHM that we are a professional organisation and we would like to return to race in future
years.
Training and boat testing is only available by authority of the race organiser – speak to Steve Bird or Steve Benny for details
before you go out.
