That transfer doesn't have to be the same rib as the round the island trip.

I will donate £50 if we can find her a seat.
Chris, there may be some spare seats available.
Take a look at the list of folks coming and see if a launch site suits you.

I think I have a seat sorted for my wife from Cowes to Cowes, so we just need to get both of us out to Cowes and back from either Langstone / Portsmouth / Southampton.

My mum lost her fight with cancer yesterday morning.

I have added myself to the list and will be leaving from Mercury Yacht harbour on the 26th with 2 maybe 3 crew.

Me too, condolences. It's a nasty thing, lost my nan and father in law to it, lost a good friend two weeks ago. He was a ex naval officer and sub guy who fought for and won better conditions for submariners. we all know many who have lost to it, my friends 2.5yr old daughter is currently fighting neuroblastoma. It's just shocking to see.

Good luck to everyone involved in this cruise. Well done.

Can you add me to the list please! Me and my dad onboard. We'll join the fleet at St Helen's Fort. What is eta for coming around Seaview approximately?

Possible lunch venue could be inside Bembridge Harbour (HW is around 1pm so 2-3 hours before and after is safe). I could speak to the Harbour Master and Brading Haven Yacht Club at Bembridge if they could accommodate a lunch stop over? if the weather is not ideal then it will give a lot of shelter. no fuel available though at Bembridge.

Look forward to meeting you all and contributing to the charitable efforts
