We shall be around Calshot (call sign rib cormorant) from about 10.30ish I think. Looking forward to it!

Tim

Edit: I have moored in Yarmoth several times and never had to pay anything. Are we likely to have to (and how much) tomorrow?

saw the jackeeens today having fun as they came speeding across our bow while we were racing out in the solent today.

Looked like you were having great fun out there.!!!

[Tim M]

Twas a very enjoyable day, although was a bit too chilly (forgot my second pair of gloves). My drunken crew fell asleep sitting on the floor on the way home!!

[slimtim]

yeah was great. Many thanks to the jackeens for the ride and drive and to daniel for the lfit back to yarmouth and the drive!

Paul, I hope you're nuts stayed tight until you got home.

Weather was kinder than it might have been - recall only a few spots of rain.

Hope to see the photos soon

[brucehawsker]

Congratulations on Passing Jimbo

[Nauti Buoy]

For a superb day out on their Rib, this was my first cruise in company and what a cool time was had, 5 Ribs blasting around excellent fun. Even the Students were blasting alongside with us in their Rib. (I never had a Rib when I was a student, let alone have money to put fuel in the damn thing!! )

Saw Pressmans awesome beast and it really is a monster Rib!!!

Also to cap the day off the Dolphin popped up to say Hi and played with the wash from the prop, got sooooo close to it, in our way back to Port Solent

[Nauti Buoy]

All the time in the world

[The Jackeens]

Thanks Daniel for a brilliant day out!

Our crew were excellent company (Nautibuoy & Zippy) and it was wonderful to meet everyone even a slightly 'tired' Slimtim in Yarmouth!!!

(Laser I was trying to zip past sterns as you guys weren't hanging around !!!)

Great to see everyone's boat blasting. Special mention to Tim M and crew: congrats! and of course Pressman. That's an awesome piece of kit Steve & Caroline.

Yarmouth was great as usual and the round IOW trip capped the day. The sun sulked a little but we got round, Paul's nuts intact Tim! and just as Andy and Ricky crossed to the camber there was Trevor/Solipper/Splash coming out to play. So we had to do do'nuts for a while to amuse the beautiful creature.

Dins and home to iron the work gear during Songs of Praise

Fantastic Day!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta few photos too and will put on the photo thread http://www.rib.net/forum/showthread.php?t=12220
