Round Anglesey - Bank Holiday Weekend

I am considering doing this is if the weather is nice. May have some friends in skiboats and a jetski or two.

We would be starting off from Rhosneigr.

If you are interested or have any thoughts, let me know.

which day you thinking?
which way round?
Tides look good for setting off mid morning over the week end, go clockwise following it in to take bridges at high tide and pop out caernarvon bar just after.

If i can, i may intercept for a part of it, but planning on being around week commencing 6th Sept.

A jet ski round the island might get tiring unless its flat calm all the way
Which is unlikely all the way round an island like Anglesey.

Tony T will be along shortly, bet he'll join you, seems to have nothing else to do other than drive round and round the peninsula burning more and more fuel !

Careful though, he's a yam yam!

Yep, yam yamin away.

Been thinking, you should have our boat really, Yellow and black. Went well with Stoke i believe!

Domino looks good on the move, turns very well in the water.

Do the wings on the seats annoy you? i noticed you struggled to sit sideways on the jockey when yamin. I often sit that way when pottering, yamin or looking at seals/nice houses on the shore etc

turns at speed on a sixpence as me gran used to say ..did consider yellow and black but glad i went with the black and white ..the wings on the seats are very comfortable to be honest the reason i was standing.. ribkid the little git spilt a can of coke on the suicide seat when we had stopped for a drink my back side was rather wet D and was trying to dry off ...hope the new addition is getting on well hope shes got a yellow and black teddy .
