St Vaast Rally
There will be a combined Royal Southampton YC and Rival Owners Association Rally to St Vaast -la-Hougue on 27th -29th May.

You then need to send another copy prior to departure. Alternatively, you can enter France via a Port of Entry, such as Cherbourg, and get your passport stamped by the Police Aux Frontiers.

If the harbour is closed on arrival, you will need to anchor and wait for the next opening. https://apisspl.kpratik.com/storage/uploads/2023/01/03/SVLH_annuaire_2023.pdf The outline plan (depending on when boats arrive): Sat 27th May: Enjoy the delights of the morning market.
