Ventnor for lunch Sunday 10 April

[Avocet]

We're planning on going clockwise around the island from Poole to Ventnor on Sunday with a view to having lunch in the sunshine on the terrace at The Spyglass Inn from around 1.00 pm and then heading back home via The Needles. Anyone want to join us for the cruise (whole or part) or for lunch? Would be good to get a group together.

ooh, can probably count me in, was planning on going out tomorrow, but as Sun is now looking better...

[Avocet]

Excellent. We're planning on leaving the marina shortly after 11.00 am so, after allowing for the speed limit which now back in for Poole Harbour, we should be off Cowes shortly after midday and will call on Ch16. We don't want to be too early since HT Ventnor isn't until 4.00 pm. Look forward to seeing you again and you can meet the harem!

If you want a longer run, a number of us are going to Weymouth - Leaving Southampton Dry Stack about 10.30 for Yarmouth, then on to Weymouth after lunch. Sleep on board (now you have a nice cabin) and then back on Sunday - may be back even in time for lunch at Ventnor!
Call me on the mobile (07840 975807) if you want more info or to come along.

great. The probably is now a definite plan. see you off Cowes just gone midday ish

[Avocet]

Looking forward to it. Harem unfortunately has had to cancel but me, Mrs A*, work colleague and her husband will be off Cowes probably around 12.15 given need for petrol in Yarmouth and busy marina launching queues (if today was anything to go by)!

Grimalkin now has a clean bottom (thanks Scurvy Crew for his help) and I'm now off to ensure I have the same.

* Trevor G, please note if you have your purchase and can access this from Weymouth!
