Hi Paul
Is there room for another boat on the trip on 23rd April? Weather permitting ,would love to come.

Phil

[HUMBER P4VWL]

No need for my permission. It is not an organised event, just a get together. Everyone welcome with appropriate boat!! As I said, planning a meet for as many as possible for everyone on 23rd and a faster longer one the day after and or before. That being more for 5-6m ribs plus, unless flat calm. I'm happy to chug along on the first day and look after sub 5m Ribs (cue backlash from nutty SR4 owners!) or decent sibs, as im sure some others in larger boats of a caring nature would also be, all about getting together.

Rib T. - With the list below I would suggest that unless it is very calm, the sib with the 15hp may struggle a little, though I'm no SIB expert and i don't know the age of the offspring. However if that was the case, from what i have seen on here, if they couldn't get in your own boat which i guess is an SR4, there will be plenty of people willing to take passengers.

Weather permitting I will be there and my mates also. We are all Angelsey based. Probably launch at Beaumaris or bychan.

Bradosh: Ribeye 6.5m, 150hp Yam.

Steve & Max: Zodiac 5.5m, 110hp Suz.

Yoyo: Menai 4.85m, 70hp Twatsu.

[HUMBER P4VWL]

Cheers Yoyo. Presume you are up for the saturday run down the straits then down the peninsula to Ty Coch at Morfa Nefyn for a pint, rib talk and bite to eat. Then possible longer run on sunday.

Shaping up for a good bunch of boats, even with a low % turnout. Plenty of shelter on that strip of water, one way or the other, even if it is bad.

Dunna worry about the Platters.

Cos, since I started boating (just after Noah) said sticky out bit is now a paltry example of it's former self.

'Due Diligence' , some folk round here call it.
Or as some local observers from the Menai Bridge have commented.

'Dew Dew, e's hit it again by there bloody nobber innit lewk you by there boys'

[bradosh]

glad to here its not just me then?
