Lift to Cowes available

I will be travelling to Cowes tomorrow afternoon (Friday 24th) - sometime after 3pm but not sure as I'm travelling up from Devon - probably two seats available :-) Should say that's from Southampton (Drivers Wharf)

It's not a RIB but it's a lot of fun!

Just your camera and some waterproofs for getting to and from the boat by the looks of things - if it's just you Wellhouse can have the second seat

You'll both be sat in the back - we have lifejackets and helmets so we can plug you in and you can hear what I'm saying - of course you can unplug it!
