Yes free to attend - you can "park" your boat in line with all the others and jump from boat to boat to get access to the beach - We've only done it once but it was memorable.

The seas and winds in January might make CGB closed off to boats due to the heavy surf. Your best bet would be West End and then taxi over to CGB Thank you sail445. Knowing that it might make more sense to find a larger boat for the voyage. It appears the largest boat in Foxy's fleet is a 38' Nautiline Express Cruiser. Great boat in normal seas but may be a little small when they're rough - particularly for a 1 a.m. return trip in the dark after drinking all night! :^) I appreciate the info!

I cannot disagree with sail445 as I have never been there in January. But while staying on CGB in the past I have been able to get rides to JVD from locals for little or no cost. Ask around while you are there. You never know.
Go Irish!!

A 38 footer is fine, but if you have to make an advanced reservation you’re better off to make it from W End rather then gamble on calm seas to go to CGB Thank you sail445. Sage advice, I appreciate it!

The ferry is $25 roundtrip from West End. Will run late into the night.
Thank you Jason. I just reached out to New Horizon Ferry and will post what I find out about any special NYE trips they are planning.
