Southampton this weekend

[Peter Smith]

Hello All

I am planning a trip out on Saturday launching on the Itchen by the bridge mid morning if anyone is going to be around.

Just a general run as the boat has just been collected from the the dealer after de winterisation.

D'oh....

Sorry Peter - just taken the RIB to have its engine service and it won't be back 'till next week. And we're off for a land based weekend away. Have fun, p'raps you'll meet up with some other Solent RIBsters?

Providing the wavelets aren't above 6"

Jeez... Get a move on guys! Those wavelets slow you down

[Ian]

touchy. I don't put you in the category of 'Southern Wuss' anymore Ricky after your efforts on Sunday.
After seeing the 'wavelets' you get on the Solent I wasn't shocked that a number of people turned over and went back to sleep! Only the mad bas*ards went out on Saturday!

BTW that was Top Bananas GPS records, BJ had to turn back for him on one occasion.

Here is a still from one of the video clips.

so you got some decent air time then

what's going to happen when you get to north wales? - will the welsh waves assist in getting you closer to the clouds?

That was a nice little head sea we laid on for you on on the way back on Sunday! Did you get the prop out of the water at all on Sunday Ian?

Hi Suzuki

Your prop sorted now?

K&P (Southern Wusses!!!)

[Suzuki416]

Yep, just fitted it.

Looks really good,
will take a pic of the 'old & new' props if I can find my digital camera.
Just 'won' on EBay another prop for £52 posted so now have a spare also. Slightly different pitch so looking forward to testing it!!

I'm also looking for my GPS!
The house is a bombsite (still decorating) but may now be finished tomorrow..

My friend has just bailed on me as I was going to take him on the Thames today at Windsor.

Pete

[The Jackeens]

all positive...!!!
Pity about the Windsor trip but you might get more brownie points for doing the house...

Look forward to pics,

K&P

Pete, on your little trip up/down the Thames tomorrow, be a little careful won't you!!!

Dem wittle Oxford & Cambridge boatys don't like BIG waves
