Poole Sat 2nd July
If all goes to plan I will be taking my father out in our SR 4.7 this Saturday launching at baiter. It would be good to meet up if anyone is out too

Hi Alasdair, congratulations on your new purchase! We were out on the Thames last Sunday went from Radcot to Buscot with the wife and kids, a great day out but quite busy, 70 boats had passed through the lock by 2pm!

Give me a shout if you need any advice regarding Seariders, sounds like I’m not to far away from you.

No worries Alasdair, I had a boat moored at Radcot near the slipway for a while but ribs are a million times better.

Had a great day yesterday, did lots of fishing, caught loads off Bournemouth. Went to Joe's Cafe for lunch then a run over to Yarmouth and back. The rib was great.

I'll PM you my number regarding the Searider tips

We were in Poole yesterday aswell (2nd July). Came across in the 5.2m Valliant (hammerhead) from Christchurch as a passage planning exercise. Went round the back of the islands and took in the stunning views. Got chips and headed back to Christchurch. Good day out in my opinion.
