hi...im new to sibs...ive caught the bug and cant believe how good these boats really are for all round family fun and days out for little money...it would be great to get as many sibs together for a day out in hampton nr herne bay, its a great location that is free parking and launching....it will be interesting to see who would be interested and then perhaps make a date for this

Hi jamdog67,

Pencil me in, I'm up for a sib meet. Lockieboi would probably be interested as well. It needs to be organised properley in advance. Let me know which weekend in August you were thinking of for the Annual Summer Sib meet!!!

Regards

Popeye

Sounds good,not been to north kent yet,mainly south coast and river medway.Will keep checking updates,i'm a bit tied by work shift patterns but if dates ok could be a good day out.

Chaps - may be on for this get together. While you Kent boys are here - any tips on the Medway? I know there are a couple of chargable slips at Wateringbury but there is a canoe access platform at Yalding - has anyone dropped a SIB in here - I did walk along there a few weeks back and it looks easy enough.

Other thing is the locks - do you pick up and walk round??

Hi Max.
I have always launched from the slipways and paid so can't comment on Yalding.
Mines a bit to heavy to carry around the locks so I bought a key of ebay and just go through them.
