I've got a place on a spectator boat. You missed some important info there Marten, allegedly the boats have a bar for snacks and refreshments.

I'm running Plymouth half-marathon on Sunday 24th. Anyone else? Come and cheer us on, the start is at 09:30 on the Hoe. The finish is there too, I'll be finishing about 11:15. Another good place for spectators is Commercial Road/Clovelly Road just outside QAB. Dont try driving into/out of the marina between 9 and 12:30, the roads will be closed or restricted.
