Solent Cruise - Sat 2nd March

Looks like we will be launching from Southampton and heading over to Cowes for lunch this Sat.

Looking to arrive at the slipway for 10:30 and be on the water by 11am.

Depending on how we feel it could be an all day breakfast or a posh lunch at the newly refurbished Fountain Hotel

I'll be taking the SR4.7 if anyone wants a go

If the weather's suitable, I'll look at coming up from Poole to say hello, as I've been otherwise engaged over every other event!
