Easter Weekend - who is boating where ?

The weather will improve (I keep telling myself & I have a BS now anyhow)...and I'm wondering who is out doing what , in what ?

Thoughts so far - do some SIB club action over out of Calshot, or chase Poole sea safari( briefly) up and about Poole in the RIB, or SIB out of the camber in Portsmouth.....

Anyone elses vague ideas ?

Hightower said the fishing isn't that good at the moment but he's up for friday.

We should be out and about - if the weather's not too bad we'll probably base ourselves in Yarmouth for the weekend - 2 on Blue Ray and 2 getting a B&B somewhere.
If the weather's not that good, Rick and I will probably still be out, but maybe just day trips, and probably not with Mrs G or KT.

First sailing day of the season on Saturday 30th, first pursuit race on the Bank Holiday Monday. I expect to be out as safety boat cover, if the weather's kind enough not to scare the sailors away.

Itching to get going again now...

The weather will improve and it will stop snowing. The weather will get warmer, the snow will go away. Easter will be lovely for boating. The weather will improve and it will stop snowing.
