The TB Cruise (Solent)

If anyone's free this Sunday (16th I think..must check the instruments!!!)

we will be sticking Zebedee in the water...

Pootling as per usual...but it's so much nicer with other boats (tow-ropes, more engines, chocolate rations to raid etc. etc. )

Please post or pm.

TIMBOLI!!!! CAN YOU HEAR US???????

Yes...it wasn't originally...there was a Scorp in there...and we had to do some juggling with the fancy Ring Cat to get out!!!

Robin's was the bright yellow one & the big blue&white was Whiteshoes...
