Hi all, I won't be able to make it in the crompton, it is now away for a retube and won't get it back until September at the earliest.
If I do come then it will be in the Zodiac SIB.

I will keep you informed.

Hi all, I don't want to jump to conclusions but it looks like we are going from Whitby to Staithes and back on the 15th?

Is this right?

Thanks
Lee

Go further if they's a few of us. Whitby to Staithes won't take long.

Hey-up, I'm back, and boy have I missed me RIB! Are any of you still up for Whitby to Staithes and back or maybe a little further if the conditions are ok. I can deffinitely make Saturday the 15th or Sunday 16th. The tide times look good so I'm going to try to get there for between eight and nine in the morning. I know Humber Tiger is busy that weekend but I am sure we will be able to arrange other outings with him. Hope he has a great time in Anglesey.

Looks like there may only be a couple of boats on the day but I am looking forward to it very much. See you at the slip guys.

Chewy and Diverdad are a couple of real mates and I cant wait for the repeat trip sometime in the near future. Thanks guys, Im still wearing "the stupid grin" while I have a couple of cold ones. Cheers!

JSP · 15 August 2009, 17:57

Glad you had a good one, sorry I couldn't make it.

Was a good run out even if the weather was a bit pants:

Berwick on Tweed to Whitby

Strong winds are forecast
Inshore waters forecast
24 hour forecast: 0700 Sat 15 Aug 0700 Sun 16 Aug

Wind Southwest 4 or 5, increasing 5 to 7 later.
Sea state Slight or moderate.
Weather Rain then showers.
Visibility Moderate or poor, becoming good.

Will be good to do it again, got the transducer mounted so its ready for the water now.

Hi JSP, Sorry you missed it too, we had a great day and it would have been great to meet you. I do plan on coming over to your side of the country ASAP if we can get some dates and a few others interested. Let me know if you are up for it.

Bam Bam · 16 August 2009, 18:05

Yes mate, I think it was Tasha. Wasnt she absolutley brilliant! She will make a fine skipper one day.

chewy · 16 August 2009, 18:24

I thought the coffee comment was best, when asked do you want a coffee? "Na teas loads better" quality lol!

diverdad · 16 August 2009, 20:49

Hi guys, my daughters name is Natacha, but she answers to tacha, sprog or squirt!
We had a great day thanks, and we both caught the sun.
Lots of ice cream and a nice stroll around Whitby after.

I checked the float chamber of the outboard when I got home; it had a lot of sediment in it. The jets were clean.
I gave the fuel filter a clean as well (a few bits of crud in there as well).

I will talk with the nice people at Humber A.S.A.P. about the Zodiac.
I need to get the Zodiac fixed as my diving associates and I are planning another trip out to Dogger Bank next year and the Zodiac is our chase boat.

I look forward to the next outing and to the return of my Crompton!!

chewy · 16 August 2009, 20:52

Thought it was just me that caught the sun lol.
Was a good run out, that little Zodiac put away the weather ok!

Bam Bam · 17 August 2009, 19:40

Quality time! Quality people! Tea and ice cream on me next time (soon I hope). Cant wait, and oh, I got the sun real good too but I can ged rid of the tan..... Its the big stupid grin on my fat red face that wont go away. Not for another day or so anyway.
