We will be staying south of Portpatrick (Caravan) and Port Logan is an easy launch site near us. We saw you all come into Portpatrick last year and it all looked excellent fun. I took some photos of the arrival and a few are still up on www.mark-fuller.co.uk

We were there last year too

Howdy-Doody Mr Red Fox sir.......

If its the same as last year Mark, you could'nt miss 'em - we can just head out in the general direction and we are bound to spot 'em - we just need an eta at Portpatrick.

You been out in the wet yet? Apart from Easter, only had the tub in the water once - Loch Lomond when the REM concert was on - unusually, the loch was like glass and had us a nice wee cruise up to Tarbet.

Really looking forward to this year at NEB - got any new toys to play wiv?

See ya soon,

Bill

Red Fox · 28 June 2005, 16:13

Hi Bill, can't wait either...I hope this weather holds. No new toys as such but no trips out yet either. Roll on three weeks time then we can play in Mark's wake again!

The Ribraid will leave Donaghadee approx 12.30, pause outside Portpatrick, for their Lifeboat to lead us in 1.15pm listen on vhf to Ribraid traffic.
Why not head over early on the Sun Morning and travel back with the Ribraid, no worries

Yes, I believe so. IIRC they don't have any CE certification as they don't need it for their marketplace.
