Thank You

Great idea Andre & Wiesia we really enjoyed it...it was brilliant to have so many RIBs out together & so nice to meet everyone...We managed to escape the seagulls, shallows etc etc & stopped for a few minutes right over the Hole where Pete 7 picks up his fresh lobster

All went really well & what a friendly bunch!!!

the jackeens (Not too bad on the way back but it did seem longer

Well Guys

It was a great cruise. Thanks for your participation and Brian (Whiteshoes) it was a pleasant suprise to see you. In total 10 ribs , 8 visiting and 2 the welcome party. The weather in the morning was just superb and your run was quite comfortable sorry about the return cos understand from taking to AY that it was lumpy
Can't post any pikis cos my digi not working but you guys have no doubt many.
So it was I believe a good idea to get you out of the Solent. We will arrange another such cruise and propose a picnic on the Arun say Arundel.
Phil and I will put something together

Andre

Pete, you are most welcome. I am very pleased under the circumstaces (my ankle) that you came down to go out with us out and drove Seahawk 2 . Many thanks . It was a fantastic day out
without Rib Net this would not have been possible . Thanks JK pity you could not make it but I am sure there will be another opportunity.

Tombouy takes the lead followed by Southcoast 2 (but Pete7 was too quick for both of them with his cable tied throttle )

Brilliant day out - thanks to everyone who made it and special thanks to those who organised things, provided us with a bed and led us expertly through the Looe Channel. It was great to meet up again with old friends and make some new ones. Hope our on-board guests are all happy - it was a pleasure to have you aboard.

Enjoyed seeing all those lovely RIBs - really good to be part of a 'mini-flotilla'.

See you all next time!

P.S. Richard's trying to download some piccies so watch this space...
