Ocean Village Boat Jumble - Sun 27th

MikeCC · 25 March 2005, 19:09

For anyone Solent-based (or likes a trip) the Ocean Village boat jumble is this Sunday 27th. Hadn't seen a mention here, so thought I'd drop it in.

See http://www.boatjumbleassociation.co.uk/

Not been to this one before - presumably the usual mix of traders and tat (sorry - good-condition second-user equipment) ?

WARNING! RUM INDUCED REPLY...

Is this walkable from IOW ferry/fastcat? (map blurred!!!)

If not is there a suitable bus service?

You wouldn't have to stagger far from Town Quay round to Ocean Village.
See http://www.redfunnel.co.uk/redfunnel.../how2get2r.php

There are some buses that go by Ocean Village but not sure whether they go round to the ferries or straight into town.

Anyway, just remember to avoid buying too much stuff to carry back. Consoles, engines etc especially tricky.

Grrr, I'm teaching a PB2 course IN Southampton this weekend, yet another boat jumble I've missed! Why can they not schedule them when I'm free????
