Wow, what a day! I counted at least 30 RIBs in Yarmouth and the weather and company was fantastic. Great to catch up with friends and meet new ribbers. Great to see Pippa at full chat, and thanks for the offer of a ride. Definitely next time.

Sorry you didn't make it LT. Electrical gremlins are a pain - our VHF died today but at least we had a handheld.

A big thanks to Trevor for organising, it couldn't have been better. We totally filled the Wheatsheaf and the nacho's are still repeating on me

Edit - Will post up some pics tomorrow - First day back at work so need to find something to do. Hopefully a few others will do the same. I know Andre has lots of GoPro footage

Well done Trevor.

Good turnout and my guess the best turnout so far for the annual Nacho Run to Yarmouth. Nice to see so many familiar faces.

I had a quick look at my GoPro footage and there is a lot of good stuff . I will need a few days to do the editing and will then post link to You Tube

Glad everyone had a good day, sounds like a fantastic turnout, really sorry I didn't make it.

I still feel the need for a plate of Nachos, so maybe in 2-3 weeks.....

Lovely seeing you out on the water again today.

It was fabulous. Around 30 or so RIBs on the water, conditions were perfect, Solent was calm (well slight to be accurate) which meant an excellent fast run back home which was a sight to behold.

Wheatsheaf nachos are very good, I went for the chilli cheese option with a hot coffee. Just perfect.

I wouldn’t mind having another go in a few weeks, most enjoyable trip.

'Isle of Wight model triceratops left in middle of high street'

Happened Friday night / early hours of Saturday morning in Godshill - think he's trying to link the 'escape' to the Nacho run and pub visit Sunday

Bingo does suck

Great run out , I think the wheatsheaf ran out of Nacho's .

I'll try and upload some photos though I think Akis has the best of them 🤔

This is part 1 of the Nacho Run. Part 2 should follow tomorrow or the day after.

I now apologise if you see yourself and had told the wife that you were at work doing a bit of overtime
