We'll be going by RIB on the Sunday, but its only across the Solent for us.

Might see you there.

Nasher.

Martin, I hope to catch up with you during Ribex. I will arrive as a visitor as we are not exhibiting this year. We are doing Seawork instead.

I am very confident I will recognise your rib

We are planning to go to ribex ( 3 ribs) from cherbourg, friday morning, back saturday for me and probably sunday for the others.

But our cruising speed (between 25 to 30 knts) may be too low for you, and the main problem is that we are french ( but we are ribs owners...)

Hi All,

If anyone is looking for places to stay in Cowes or in fact anywhere on the IOW, try these http://www.wightlocations.co.uk/. We've been very impressed with them and it's worked out cheaper than B&B on a per person basis.

Look forward to seeing you all there.

Jonathan
