North Argyll Ribnet Gathering

Anyone fancy getting together in July / August for a gathering / trip? A Saturday or Sunday is probably best and with it being school holidays may give a few folk from elsewhere a chance to tag along. Just an idea at present. Let me know what you think.

Itinerary and meeting point can be based on who is coming along and where they are coming from etc, but probably meet around Easdale or Cuan Sound area as they are reasonably central and a good starting point. Can make up a few routes so that we have options for all weather conditions.

Paul

Hi Paul
I am up from the 24th July til 8th Aug and if family demands are not to demanding!! I would be up for it. I am sure some of the others that frequent these particular waters would be up for it and if it were further down the sound maybe we could make it worthwhile to the 'Redbay' gang. Cue Willk!!
Keep the thread going but I will be away from the 3rd til 16th so I will catchup when I come back.

erm, well yes Bruce, but there's Beer...

I may have to do a "Tim Meo" and subcontract that pizza delivery

Would it be OK by SR4? Or failing that, a Tyne Class?

OK, guess its time to start organising as I am away in an internet free zone for the next 2 weeks. Looks like the weekend of August 7th and 8th looks best, PM me if you are up for it and we can try and finalise a date on my return from holidays. Itinary needs to be responsive to weather but I am quite keen to have a look down the West side of Jura and given a really flat day we could even consider Colonsay if folk are up for it. I'll have a look at the tides for that weekend.
