Hi.
Is there anyone who has a RIB on the Thames who would like to take a group of 4-5 girls on a jolly on Saturday evening about 6pm ending up in the Putney area. They would be happy to pay you for the privilege!!!
Many thanks
Ali

Curse my bad back!!!

Could we have pictures of the potential crew ??

Alan · 01 October 2002, 16:56

On a practical note much though I'd love to help I can't. Also checking tide times I 6pm is gonna be somewhere around low water so recovering a RIB at that time could be a problem. Nevertheless I am sure that someone on here may be able to help you out. Particularly if as Charles suggests you post a photo...................

Please see attached for a sample. I realise the tide might be a problem but if we could be flexible with route, would it be possible?

Damn... I live in Bristol!

We went on a Thames cruise early in Feb - I know one guy kept his boat on the Thames - can't remember his name though

Geoff as in www.boatlaunch.co.uk lives near London he may be able to give you some more names of people in that neck of the woods.

Keep an eye open for people planning trips - I'm sure they wouldn't mind some extra crew

We live on a barge on the thames and have a yam 550 with yamaha 115hp as our tender. Barge is in battersea- actually off tonight with some mates to putney for dinner in the rib.
Anyway...am maybe around this w/e for a rib trip - drop me an email and we will try to make a plan.

Are you dam***d sure that those ladies want to go on Thames ? I must insist on the Acropolis in Athens (first)

and then a rib cruise with the SUNKISS.

I'll be on my RIB on The Solent on Saturday if that's any help.
