Saturday 5th October
Hi.
Is there anyone who has a RIB on the Thames who would like to take a group of 4-5 girls on a jolly on Saturday evening about 6pm ending up in the Putney area. They would be happy to pay you for the privilege!!!
Many thanks
Ali

On a practical note much though I'd love to help I can't. Also checking tide times I 6pm is gonna be somewhere around low water so recovering a RIB at that time could be a problem. Nevertheless I am sure that someone on here may be able to help you out. Particularly if as Charles suggests you post a photo...................

Please see attached for a sample. I realise the tide might be a problem but if we could be flexible with route, would it be possible?

Damn... I live in Bristol!

We went on a Thames cruise early in Feb - I know one guy kept his boat on the Thames - can't remember his name though

Geoff as in www.boatlaunch.co.uk lives near London he may be able to give you some more names of people in that neck of the woods.

Keep an eye open for people planning trips - I'm sure they wouldn't mind some extra crew

Jools
(Probably going to Southampton on Sunday )

AliH,
Are you dam***d sure that those ladies want to go on Thames ? I must insist on the Acropolis in Athens (first) and then a rib cruise with the SUNKISS.
