Yes of course..... but really...following?

That'll be about for the 1st 10 seconds until you take her out of tickover!

Great - so far it's about 15 boats and about 40 people - but that doesn't include a bunch from FB that are really hard to keep track of, so if the weather stays OK there may well be another 10 boats + crews.

I'll repeat this nearer the time, but rather than all hanging around off Calshot or Cowes and turning up en-mass, it's much more manageable if people try to buddy up with 2 or 3 others and head up to Yarmouth and meet on the pontoon or in the Wheatsheaf.
It's a pain for the smaller ribs if they have to contend with the chop from a big group of boats, and mooring up is much easier if we don't all turn up at the same time!
I'll let Yarmouth know we're coming and maybe they will set aside the pink pontoon for us. The Wheatsheaf already know, but I'll try and update them with rough numbers nearer to Sunday.

Andre · 31 December 2019, 14:07

It looks like we are going to have a good turn out. Grey Mist leaving SDS with 6 persons on board . This number includes Mr Rib [emoji106]. Nauti Buoy Richard W + 3 will join us and coming by car cos they now live on the island

Mike Watershed · 31 December 2019, 18:01

Evenin' Trev
I'm back from the Emerald Isle, Geee - the leprechauns in our family know how to party so a chilly blast in the Solent would clear the head, nostrils and everything else. Plse book for me on Watershed, I'll berth on a finger (ummm !) and keep out of the way.

Cheers Mike.
I'd included you in the numbers already.
See you Sunday.

Was out on the Solent today, went from Swanwick Marina over to East Cowes for lunch then back. Reasonable conditions, cold and a bit lively but fun nonetheless.

Look forward to Sunday, I will be leaving Swanwick Marina around 10:30. Happy to buddy up with others nearby?

Would be good to see you again.

So far it's about 20 boats and 50 People.

Yarmouth Harbour and the Wheatsheaf are expecting us.

FoxZulu · 01 January 2020, 13:57

Hi Trevor, +1 on Grey Pearl so 3 in total, plus one more RIB, Chasemaster, with 4pax .

FoxZulu · 01 January 2020, 17:04

We're really excited about the Nacho Run, our 2nd year! From our POV meeting as a flotilla is the wow factor. The bigger boats shooting off first, the smaller boats (we're one of those!) following, its special. Love it when Pippa overtakes! Please can we find a RV spot west of Cowes, outside the main shipping lane, where we can gather for a Photo Opportunity @11ish and then "Ofski"to the pub :-) Cheers Sarah AKA Mrs Fox Zulu x

lakelandterrier · 01 January 2020, 17:16

May be better photo opp after lunch on leaving Yarmouth?- can include the boats coming from the west then as well.
