Solent Fog

Wonderful Solent fog today, stopped work as not safe to operate- we ran out on the RIB talked about on another post, REDBAY 9.5 with twin Suzi 300s run by SEADOGZ. I have shown some images on FB pages just to give a flavour of the lovely day we did not have!

Calshot Castle did not become visible till probably 100-200yrds off. Great practice for boat helms but no good for customers. Facebook

Cardinal mark at Cowes water front could not be seen from beach and Cowes Yacht haven could not see other side of the river
