This post may take sometime on one finger left handed! Chris Seddon from Ty Calch has arranged for a photographer to be present on Saturday. He will be taking video and photo. He will edit these and make them available to purchase. It should make a great addition to your photo albums.

In terms of the weather it is looking blowy on Saturday but really nice Sunday. Saturday at this stage is still on but I will update later in the day.

There are currently 35 ribs on the list. Spoke to Holyhead Coastguard last night and will forward the list later. I will also let the NCI station know at Porth Dinllean

Please remember it would be great to raise over £1000. There is the Just Giving web page or you can donate on the day via buckets!#

Nick

Sounds great Nick! There's a chance i'm not going to make it. All my crew has got this chest bug thats doing the rounds. If it does slide until Sunday, theres a better chance, but i'm going to have to play it by ear. Currently sat sulking with the GF saying, "it's just a boat trip"!

Just arrived in Caernarfon ( minus Just Looking) It is all go for tomorrow. Starting windy but dropping as the day goes on. Sunday looks ideal for anyone planning to stay for another day.

Arrive at Ty Calch drop rib off 9:30
Start launching 10:00
Head for Bardsey 10:30 or when all launched

Channel 8 for rib to rib communication

Follow the buoyed channel out to the fairway. Don't be tempted to take a shortcut. There is some quite shallow water outside the channel marks.

For those finding the going tough across the bay to Porth Dinellaen head to the Ty Coch or return and drop in at Pilot Cove at Llandwyn Island and enjoy the beach.

Please remember you are responsible for your own safety but it is really recommended you buddy up with someone.

Look forward to seeing you all in the morning!

Nick

Great run yesterday, back home now

Seen the weather for today, hopefully you all had a great night and for the ones that stayed over some good boating.

We had a great day and a great cause

Please see some pictures of the day, didn't get lots of the group as we were all spread out

Thanks Nick for organising a great day.

Some more .....

And a great pint of dock yard, a toast with our crew at the Ty Coch for those who couldn't be with us

And thanks to the two lovely couples who contributed some extra funds to the cause

And before Tony T starts this was not the film set of Star Trek, just a coincidence
