Launching RS700 from beach

I must say Hill Head SC looks fantastic (I looked at the website and Google Earth).  You should try Google Earth on and around the Medway and you'll find we have big wide open spaces too.  Even with the tide out we often get a downwind leg of a couple of kilometres and with the tide up the high performance boats play in an area which is about 2.5km wide by 3.5km long.  We also have some long distance races during the year which often take us to the mouth of the Medway which is 14km away as the crow flies.  So far from being on a puddle we have the benefit of a big sailing area mostly bounded by marshlands which are only a few feet above sea level giving us very clear winds especially from the east, north and south once we are down river a bit.  Feel free to pay us a visit with your boat and try it out.
