"New Year" cruise from Pwllheli

We had some excellent conditions for fun in the RIBs and a good turnout of five RIbs and some new friends who joined with the NW Ribsters.

Here is the evidence that Phil made it!

MeMe was the instigator of the cruise and was the first to launch from the slipway at Pwllheli

Incognito as usual DM with Caprice

My camera stopped working shortly after this but I look forward to seeing the pictures taken by the others and possibly Jono's Video

Not quite sure what the inference is here but never mind.

This group goes from strength to strength with five boats out on a bitterly cold day for a cruise along the Lynn peninsular along with new members, Fred and Jane Bolton and Stuart and Georgia from the hardboat clan.

This is a pic of John Firth (unfortunate initials) and crew. My camera also stopped working shortly after this.

Group quartermaster Meme dishing out the supplies. On return to the slipway, something was said about going to the pub. This ensured that the five boats were recovered in less than thirty minutes. Very slick teamwork.

It wasn't your picture which broke the camera Dave, it was swamped by a wave when I tried to take a picture on the open sea.
