Searider Only gathering - September 2008 tbc

Any of the Avon SR owners fancy a gathering of boats? I'm thinking of the middle of September-either weekend of 13/14th or 20/21st.

Any suggestions as to destination?

Not sure. If we were going to do longish distances I reckon we need to do it before the cold weather sets in.

Obviously anyone would be invited-but it'd be nice to see how many Seariders of different sizes we could get in one place.

Oh that sounds fun, may have mine all sorted by then.
Weekend in Ramsgate, lots or nice bars and places to eat and stay. Also only a short raz to the forts. Herne Bay only gives you a few hours either side of high to launch and recover. 24 hour access here.

Just google map'd Hern bay and it comes up as Auckland, NZ - now that IS a long drive

Matt, I'm up for some mass Sea Riding action. Have to check with the boss which w/e would be best but it sounds like a plan
