Rare meeting of RIBnet California

[limeydal]

Not very often us USA West Coast members manage to get together
So I was out quietly photographing the Coast Guard Cutters ,when a nippy little RIb sped over and hailed me
Seems Boatster was working in San Diego and was just a matter of time before we ran into each other.
Great to see you out there and hope next time we can chat longer(had to chase the USCG cutter "Chase" and earn my gas money )
Sorry Point Loma wasn't breaking for you; flatest i've seen it in ages
cheers Dal

Hey thanks for the photos Darrall. I would love to buy some shots from you if possible. Sorry I haven't been to communicative lately. I've been adjusting to my new settings

So whats so funny about my hat? I don't get it? ?????

[pop]

what do you mean whats so funny, you look like the local flower pot man. you have been out of the mother country to long mate .

point loma is a cool place i skipper a 100ft out of driscolls near OB smatt place but even in the 1960s OB i never saw a hat like that how do you find the kelp i guess with your rib you run down the inside playing it the great swell you get there.

Don't listen to 'em Boatster!

Have you seen the way these Brits are dressed in their pictures??? Full drysuits, 4 layers of fleece underneath, wellies & wool caps... They're just jealous that you're wearing shorts and a t-shirt and NEED a cap with a brim to keep the strong sun off yourself. We know it's always cold and rainy in the UK!

Well actually, I've visted Cowes for a week, and it was sunny for a day.
