Not many boats out in the Solent yesterday
I think we saw 2 Ribs on the Hamble and 6 yachts, Left Warsash @ 10:30 to go to Bembridge for a cuppa & lunch, the waves were huge around the forts and quite big everywhere else .

That's because it's cold and most people are at work Paul!

I take it you were out on your wave runner?

I took our little 4M over to Cowes and back today - out 1045 and back 1330.

Was "a bit lumpy" off Cowes to say the least.

Quicker than driving into Southampton and getting the Red Jet though.

(And I was at work!)
