potentially sounds like a good day out, first day of my xmas holidays, what a great excuse not to go xmas shopping.

What are the launching Facilities like? any good places for lunch in the area, or on the trip?

Try a different approach, Rich - promise her she'll be your last wife if she does let you out

Try not to reprise Richard's last RIB experience on the East Coast where we were subjected to the wrath of the denizen's of Southwold........

Hi CND
Hopefuly going to stop off at Woolverstone Marina where they have a bar and food.Roast dinner is only £5.99,that should finish the day off.It's only a 5 minute blast back to Levington Marina.Launching is not a problem.

Will be meeting at Levington at 9.30 - 10.00 Hrs,go for cruise destination will confirmed later but we will be stoping off for lunch hopefully a roast at Woolverstone marina before returning back to Levington. High tide is at 16.45 Hrs. Although we will launch at low tide It's not a problem, there is a cable if you don't have a 4x4.

Can it be more 10 than half past nine, for some of us have to come a bit of a distance (and it's the end of term party the night before which means one might be slightly hung-over)

We don't drink Ale!! Wine and vodka (normally mixed together to make a interesting "cocktail") is the drink of the student drinker round my way.

How many miles are we looking at doing (need to know how many petrol cans to tie down to the deck....)

Havn't decided where to go yet,waiting to see what the wind will be doing on the day.We have sevaral options,I should plan on about four hours running time to be on the safe side.
Vodka and wine, that's where the student loans go then.
