How long would it take to get from Anglesey to IoW ? I think you may need more that a weekend

John Kennett · 19 January 2014, 14:19

A couple of days would do it. Overnight somewhere like Falmouth

Chris Caton · 19 January 2014, 16:57

I have liaised with Kevin at Portsmouth and we will get some ads out soon to try to sell spaces on coded RIBs. I will post link up when on websites

Intend being on the water for this (work permitting of course), should be a great day.

Below is a Email I am in the process of sending to our suppliers and customers, one of our suppliers Cable management warehouse has already made a donation of £50.00

Hi

As in previous years, instead of sending Christmas cards we will be donating £300 to charity. This year it will be going to the “Round Isle of Wight 2014 for Macmillan Cancer Support” event, which I will also be taking part in.

On the 29th June 2014 we are going to circumnavigate the Isle of Wight in Rigid Inflatable Boats (Ribs) and our chosen charity helps families who are affected by cancer and provides the support they need.

If you would like to see more information please have a look at the webpage:

We wish you a happy and prosperous 2014!

Kind regards
From all at Enterprise Cabling Services Ltd

Cheers Chris.
I'm just trying to calculate my fuel usage to see if it's feasible for me to join in!

chris.moody · 22 January 2014, 23:44

Definitely worth taking part. If you cannot carry enough fuel yourself i am sure one of the bigger boats will carry a jerry can for you.
