We'd like to come along by RIB too, leaving the Hamble at about 10:30, and heading for the Bridge Tavern.

Dry Run, if you can squeeze in 'yet-another' (6.5m) RIB we'd like to take you up on your offer of a mooring. Where are your pontoons? Not having been to the Town Camber before some reasonably detailed directions would be helpful.

I also recall hearing talk of car parking? Mrs + smaller children may come by car to support the event, so if there is a suggested area for car parking that would be good

Looking forward to it!

I've Google mapped the Boat park and Bridge Tavern Pub

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@50.79.../data=!3m1!1e3

Don't forget to ask QHM Channel 11 for permission before crossing to and from Camber as the IOW Ferry port is opposite.

Disco passed the MOT, so that takes care of one little piggy

The other piggy should be ready to eat around 12:30 on Sunday

Marquee's up so Lisa from Macmillan will be set up in there if anyone needs anything or info etc

Crew2's sorted some name tags if anyone wants one so you know who you're talking to.

Weather's sorted

Press is sorted

Writing PBR story at the moment, I will need your support

Macmillan Cancer support has wished us well

A lady cried on me yesterday when I told her what we had done and the 'Out of Nothing' concept

So much work has gone into to this behind the scenes so I hope you all enjoy a nice relaxing lunch in the sun with great company.

Map attached of where we are and where the RIB Rides are running from...

Dry Run can fit about 20 - 25 ribs in rafted up, moorings are near the RIB 4 Macmillan sign on the map below...

And dont't forget the following information copied from KB's website...

QHM Portsmouth are still rigorously enforcing the regulations for boats entering and leaving Portsmouth Harbour. On slipping from the pontoons and again when in the vicinity of the Camber entrance you are required to call up QHM on Channel 11 and request to cross from Camber Docks to Ballast Pile and upon return request to cross from Ballast Pile to Camber Docks. Boats entering and leaving the Harbour should use the small boat channel on the Gosport side.

See you Sunday

Well done everybody! What a fantastic effort for such a deserving cause.

Thanks to all especially the boat builders team

Have a great day on Sunday. Too far away for me to join you all. Thinking about you.
