Must admit, I was just going to head to Calshot spit and look for a conspicuous gathering of RIB's... Presumably quite hard to miss?!

11:30 at Calshot is fine with me. Will launch at SDS about 10:30 and wait for Mike C to turn up

I would come too, but have failed to raise a crew - they still remember freezing to death on the last trip

If you need crew I'm looking for a seat ! I'm handy with a piece of string and know how to tie a granny knot

What a week!

Looks like I won't have time to get the 4.7 so I'll be in the RC.

See you all tomorrow

Will try and say hello to all if weather ( and children) allow. Out from Chichester Marina - do you all have a VHF channel you tend to use?

Excellent - I'll hopefully be leaving Poole 10:00ish, to get to Calshot for 11:15-11:30.

Look forward to meeting some new faces!

A few still photos from me - I clearly need to bite the bullet and get a GoPro!

Many thanks Whisper for organising, was a great first outing with the group, and a chance to put faces to names. I'd never been to Wootton before, so lovely to see somewhere new and different.

Heading back to Poole we crossed paths with SeaStart on their way to rescue Never Enough - hope they managed to get it sorted.

Super day must do it again. It pays to have Sea Start, it was a loose ignition that caused the problem and will have to sort that out before I take the rib out again - a new ignition will have to be fitted

The SeaStart guy was very good so it did not take long for us to be on our way under our own steam

Thanks to all who offered a helpful hand. This is what cruising in a group is all about - you watch out for one another and help each other when there is a need.
