Often wondered about doing a circumnavigaation of Portsea Island. Any idea whether my Generation 430 RiB would get through Port Creek and, if so, can I join in or is this a SiB only outing?

Excellent. I'll put it in my diary and look forward to meeting you all then

(I guess I may meet some of you on the round IoW trip on 26th May, though I'm still unsure whether I'll be able to do that one)

I always like seeing innovative new ideas but I think PeteM needs to think again about his pressure relief valves
