Yes, I saw Gibbo and thought it's a good job SR4s aren't rated above 50hp! 
Good day out - well done everyone.

Photos from the weekend
Hello all, here's some of the photos from the weekend. Feel free to enjoy. We've a video but rib.net doesn't seem to like uploading them. If anyone's interested/wants full size images we can work out a way to transfer them.

We put a record amount of fuel through Jigsaw for a 55 mile trip.  She was flat out for pretty much all of it.
Not being an SR, we're not worthy of a pic.

Was afloat but ended up getting a bit busy playing safety boat to a broken down speed boat 0.5 miles south of Gull Island, then shadowed in yacht with engine failure to the Beaulieu.
Still, quality weather, went out Sunday as well and had a few Fck!Sh"t!F"ck!sh"t! moments on some big swells.
eh he he.
Quality picks, saw some sea riders just off the Beaulieu river entrance, don't know who it was though.

Looks like this was a lot of fun - some really good photos - especially the airbourne Searider - how do you get it to do that???
Solent Salted - glad to hear you had some interesting moments on Sunday - we were also out for the first time - around Hayling and Chichester Harbour - and I thought the sea was interesting - good to hear it was'nt just my lack of experience and confidence

That looks like the place where I had to jump over the side, with a knife between my teeth, to carry out essential repairs, so we could battle on.

I think that's called the call of nature and it was a small knife too

It's not the size of your knife, it's the sharpness of the blade.
