Title: Buggiba Slipway
Post by: Spirit of Jason on November 16, 2009, 22:19:49 CET
Hi Everyone

HELP
Got a small problem, on Wednesday my boat is coming out of the water and off to the boatyard, were she will be cleaned, spruced up and have the transducer fitted.
The only problem is, it is being trailord out at Buggiba slipway. I will be leaving from Ta'biex to head around to Buggiba, but I dont know were the slipway is coming in and approaching from the sea, if you know what I mean.
Can anyone give me co-ordinates of the slipway.
I appologise for any miss spelling of place names and the mis-use of nautical terms.

Regards

Russell

the slip way is on the left hand side on your way into st pauls's bay (circa 800m-1km in)........ on your way in there is a long jetty (200m+) the slipway is on the inner side of that jetty......

Hi Caldaland
Yes I must agree with your comment, Robby went out of his way to make sure I knew how to get to the slipway at Buggiba.
Several of the forum members will probably be saying it is easy to find the slipway, which is probably true, when you know the area.
This will be the first time I will be using the slipway and thanks to Robby I am now confident, how to get there.
Thanks for your comment and a big thank you once again to Robby for all his help.
