For once the weather is looking good for a weekend.
Hoping to get out next Saturday (7th April) for a nacho run to Yarmouth.
Normal stuff - leave Southampton Dry Stack 11 ish and get to Yarmouth around midday.

Hi Trevor. Sounds good see you at SDS

FoxZulu · 04 April 2018, 18:34

Hi Guys, we're Yarmouth bound tomorrow (Thursday), but maybe up for Saturday as well.

Steve.

Trevor G · 04 April 2018, 19:36

OK - you can always track us on Marine Traffic as both Black Adder and Grey Mist have AIS.

FoxZulu · 06 April 2018, 16:51

Are you guys going tomorrow?

Andre · 06 April 2018, 16:55

I am . Did you lunch in Yarmouth yesterday?

Trevor G · 06 April 2018, 17:02

I am too.

FoxZulu · 06 April 2018, 17:09

Yes, we went to Yarmouth yesterday. We had a really good day out with our young niece who did really well piloting Grey Pearl through some light Solent chop. Met looks OK for tomorrow so we're good to go. We'll look to be on the water at 1100 hrs at Calshot Spit.

I might need to pop into East Cowes on the way to Yarmouth to pick some stuff up, so if I'm on the water early I'll head straight across to Cowes and pick up Grey Mist on AIS or see you in Yarmouth.
I'll monitor VHF 16 and 8.

We would appreciate the opportunity to follow you across to Cowes, so it'd be good if we can meet up with you mainland side.

Andre · 06 April 2018, 17:46

Steve no worries if necessary I will wait for you at Calshot and we can catch up with Trevor in Cowes. My AIS will pinpoint his location

See you all tomorrow

The weather on Saturday was not the very best but a trip to Yarmouth was called for. I have put together a few clips from the both legs showing Grey Mist, Black Adder and Grey Pearl a newcomer to our Yarmouth trips

but as I understand is keen to participate in mamy more of our rib cruises

Black Adder, Grey Pearl and Grey Mist moored at Yarmouth, and Andre looking dapper at 30Kts on Grey Mist.

The Solent Sunday was like a mill pond

roll on the sun cream !!

Nice video Andre, it's good to see footage of Grey Pearl underway. We had a great day out with you and Trevor and certainly plan on more trips out with you guys. It's certainly more fun in good company plus we're learning lots too.

Where - Yarmouth?

Andre · 10 April 2018, 10:48

The next outing has to be round the IOW. Say clockwise with lunch in Yarmouth - where else

Perhaps the numbers will increase

FoxZulu · 11 April 2018, 08:39

Sounds good. A few more boats travelling together would certainly add some interest. Hopefully we'll start getting some nice weather soon too.
