MOB Irish Sea

Hi can someone help me? Looking for an old thread but not having much luck on my phone!

Can’t remember the Ribnetters handle who went mob whilst single handing across to IOM. He posted the whole story here shortly after.

I mentioned it to my local CG buddy who wants to use the story to help reinforce a new safety initiative.

TIA

Hello Oldtimer!

You are looking for Mustrib. Summer 2013. Search his old posts via his profile. The story was carried elsewhere too. I can pm his name if that helps.

Thanks people. God knows where I found the time to write 3000 posts! Between running a charter boat, doing a ground up refit on a Nelson 45, ALB crew for RNLI Jersey, etc etc.

Good to see you're all still alive, kicking and flying the flag!
