Hi Peter,

Yep bringing the Tyne around from Lymington to Poole Quay on Friday eve - then out in the morning, to position for good view, long range forecast (hahahahahaha) I hear you say is actually looking like it could be quite good and that the Reds could get a full display in rather than a flat one!! Here's hoping !!

Nick

Was always Christchurch - now moved half between there & Poole . I'll look at tides etc . Poole is always available at all tides but less 'pleasant' ay baiter , but Christchurch is very pleasant but can be a little 'shallow' & unforgiving on the wrong tide .....

Planing to go out Friday in which case I'll be out of Poole as its easier to leave the boat in the marina in Poole.

Hi Luke,

Depending on your back - spinal elasticity - my Tyne has 1.4 mtr wake at 17 knots with the trim tabs up............ Awesome for photography of a fully airborne ZapC from the stern however, as you know it would hurt on arrival back at sea level :-)

We are launching from Lymington at about 0930 getting fuel and blasting round to Christchurch bay/Boscombe bay from the end of the river at 1000. Would you like to convoy? We are a 6.5m Solent yellow tubes white hull. Planning to anchor 11 ish for lunch and to watch the airshow.
