Redbay/Ballycastle/Rathlin trip

[BruceB]

Anybody fancy a trip to Redbay via Rathlin and Ballycastle?
We would be leaving from Campbeltown but that leg wouldn't be compulsory.....
I quite fancy contacting the factory for a tour and maybe a demo as a potential customer, possibly when I can eventually afford one whenever that would be.........

Looks like you fell in with bad company on the IOM

I do hope you're not just being a tease, 'cos I'll have to think seriously about running over to Campbeltown and collecting you - I get an extra bonus for delivering "Prospects" by sea (apparently the salt air loosens the wallet)

Any suggested dates for this one? (Redbay closed from mid-day Saturday and Sundays)

If I'm going over first, it would be a "revolving door" cruise with ribs joining whichever leg suits them

Depending on dates count me in on this one BruceB!

I wonder which company on the IOM Willk was referring to?

[BruceB]

I think he was talking about himself........
Dates are a bit "in the air" for the moment until I figure out when I can go myself but certainly before the end of august. There are a few dates either out for work or previously arranged trips and I need to shove a pin in an empty slot somewhere with a suitable tide and start making calls.........

well into this. gies a shout!

Been slightly busy since the weekend sorting vehicles out but will look into this at the weekend, willk has even come up with itineray already as he is on commission I think.
Staying overnight on Rathlin does sound quite nice but I think he has ulterior motives revolving around drink!

Any updates on this one folks?

[willk]

Aye, there is.

Bruce is awa' chasing deep sixed scrap metal until August. Redbay have kindly offered a tour of the Works (Monday - Saturday 1.00pm) seeing as how Bruce is buyin'

I think we confer again in three weeks. Should be fun...

"The Redbay Fun Run"

Meh suggestion (disclosed to The Bruce earlier) was to RV in Campbeltoon on a Friday PM and make a run to Rathlin for food, a few scoops and B&B, running in to Redbay for 1030hrs Saturday, have a dekko, lunch and for them's what's goin', depart for Scroatland.

Obviously, the plan is flexible...
