Hi,

I have finally got my first rib so i would love to come along on this trip as it seems it could be safety in numbers/ support and experience for me being a relative novice.

I have a really clean and up together 5.3m bombard explorer SB with a 70hp suzuki which with some healthy respect i reckon could do the trip.

I will keep a keen eye on this thread for updates.

Stu.

I've live in Cowes, so spend most of my time on the water around the Island. Been round loads of times both clockwise and anticlockwise on both the Rib (Ribeye 6.5m) and the Jetski.

You never normally get flat water all the way round, depending on the wind, there's normally some fun chop somewhere along the route

If I'm not working on the day of the cruise, I'll be there.

I have put together a list of names below who have shown interest so far, I'm thinking (weather permitting) of going on the 24th March. If the weather isn't suitable we can always go to a pub for lunch on the island and choose another date.

Please let me know if you can make it or if I have missed you off the list

I do owe you a seat so you are more than welcome to jump on board with me from Southampton

Unless you want a ride on a bigger boat?

Yes, I'm in.
Not sure whether my chartplotter will have been replaced by then, but I'll just have to try to keep the Island on one and the same side for a couple of hours
Spare seats available

Just a quick update from me:

I will post up around Saturday the plan for this cruise, Trevor G is kindly helping me with the arrangements, so if it all goes wrong it will be his fault, but if it is a great day out then I will be at the bar to accept beer tokens

Our general plan is to launch at Crosshouse Hard, Southampton on Saturday 24th and rendezvous with everyone else off Calshot. If for any reason, the weather is not good enough to circumnavigate the island, we can still have a blast on the water and lunch in a pub - Nachos, Folly or wherever.

Crosshouse Hard Southampton[slipway] - Boatlaunch

Will keep an eye on the weather forecast but we are hoping for high pressure and low wind for the days preceding this event.

Just checked it out, looks like a great place to launch from and be good to set off in company.
