Cheers guys.

Just waiting for my first proper trip out now but it won't be for a few weeks yet.
Still got a few more toys to fit.

As you can see, today wasn't really the weather for it but one of the great advantages of being based at Littlehampton is that even when the weather is cr*p you still have 24 miles of navigable river to play in.

Soon as there is the chance Andre and I will arrange something so you can come and taste the wares of our marina cafe !!!

You boys have nice weather there in England. Here's still cold, ice on water and I have to wait for nearly two months until I get the same weather you already have now. Fortunate I come to London within couple of days (by the way for SURV 6 conference related to RIBs) to speeden up my waiting of water to open.

Are you going to leave the boat in the water or do you take it home?

Other commitments this weekend I'm afraid.

The good thing about being based at Littlehampton is that they do all the launch and recovery for you and this is covered by the annual fees.
The fees also cover one free overnight on the pontoons each week if there is space to Galaxsea did spend her first night in Sussex on the water.

I went out in those seas on Sunday but didn't stay out for long !!!

Going into the waves was fine but turning around to come back in again took some good timing !!!

If England had great weather, then you should see Greece. Yesterdays high was 24 C and already many people had their first swim. Too bad I hadn't my camera handy.
