Good news - BananaShark are fully paid up and will be there with both the leisure and race versions of the boat - I have a funny feeling we might be busy!

Look forward to seeing a few of the familiar faces there!

30 min is plenty time. Towards the bottom of the river, once you are round the corner, you can crack-on a bit just keep an eye out of HM dory and if caught plead ignorance of speed limit Des

I'm probably going to go on Saturday.

If anyone is planning to go across from Portsmouth for the day, can I hitch a lift please?

John

We aim to go across on Saturday - probably a fairly early morning launch. Could swing by Portsmouth if you needed a lift JK. PM or phone me nearer the time - think you have my mobile number.

All the way.

We intend to leave our coast at 04:00 next Thursday and try to make it in one day.
Depending on the weather the trip will take somewhere between 12 and 16 hours.
Refueling is not neccesery. We take 250 liters each boat and hope to use 175 liters on the way.
Starting from Holland to Calais and crossing the channel to Dover and all the way to the solent.

Would be nice to meet some of you on the Ribbex.

Dan.
