Channel islands, 16th October 2006
Planning a trip down in my new boat if the weather suits, leaving Lymington, anyone fancy a run down and an overnight stop? If the weather is against us will drive to a local pub and drink...

Sounds like an easy plan.

I would be up for it - but can only really make it on a weekend - work load is stacked against me at the moment

What engine setup you going for?

Has to be a Monday for work reasons for me, weekends my busy time

Gone for the 275 Verado, fancied a complete change from my last engine a 225 Opti and other than a diesel this seemed to be the best fit..

Ollie,

I might be up for that, subject to weather etc.

Have you got any crew ? Rather than get the boat out and try to press gang some poor unsuspecting soul, I might prefer to jump on your shiny new scorp, if that's an option.

My land loving friend wants to come down but his interest is the beer rather than the sea so a nautical crew member would be most welcome... Will definately be there for the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday weather will determine where we go, keep in touch but your welcome aboard..

You'd better hope the weather calms down a bit. Bloody awful at the moment. Really wouldn't fancy being out there today! We've hardly had a fair day below F5 for weeks (well it seems like that long anyway)

The weather here has been rough and rather windy even for you hardened ribbers. Looks like its going to die down for Sat and Sun, with some fantastic high tides. Came back from the Chinese tonight along our sea front, aahhhh Full moon and 9.9m high tide, beautiful

We were looking for something to do with the boat next week

Suspect it'll probably be too rough for us though
