BOATLIST

OK here's an effort at guessing who's meeting where.

• If you miss one meeting point, well there's always the next one !
• Radio Channel 77 is usually useful unless anyone has better knowledge/suggestions.
• We've just put 1 skipper's name next to each boat & a RIBnet log-on where needed for convenience of contact (nowt to do with status!)
• Someone may volunteer to be a single point of contact for each meet? Perhaps you could post a mobile no. ?

[LURCHER]

Just a chance I will make it to Cowes by 1130 if my hangover allows don't wait for me but hope to see you all there .

[Mark Halliday]

Hi all

Ribtec (Halliday II) may not be with us. Family calls.

Olly, we have seats to spare if you can face it. Lightship or Northney?

[ollyit]

Mark, very gentlemanly of you - thanks for the offer, I've had a right month of all things boaty, so Im gonna do wot I do best and go and get hammered with mates this evening, thanks very much tho - wouldnt wanna be sick over your boat either -

look forward to seeing the pics!!

[Mark Halliday]

S'aalrite Olly

I wouldnt mind a new colour scheme. Enjoy tonight.

[ollyit]

thanks mark,

Wish you all a wicked, safe, sunny (hopefully) day , with plenty of "Airtime" hairy moments

[Scary Des]

I’m aiming for Cowes at 11.30 crew has let me down so will be single handed so if anyone wants a lift from Bucklers Hard or wants to experience the awesome power of a P22 give me a call 07747847107 Des

[Nasher]

Been away most of the week, and can't be bothered to read the whole thread, so caught up with Mr Halliday earlier today.
I'll be launching from The ferry Inn slip on Hayling between 09:00 and 09:30.

Sadly smallest Nasher is unable to join us, so its just me and my eldest(Middle Nasher).

Plenty of room left if anyone needs a seat. Best thing for a hang-over I can think of Olly!

Oh, will probably need to top up fuel in Yarmouth before heading back.

By the way, although she does say it quite often, the boat is not called 'Bloody thing by wife'.

Nasher.
