Anyone out in Pembrokeshire this Weekend

With summer making a wonderful return I was thinking of getting out this weekend, anyone about Pemb's fancy a cruise somewhere. maybe The Smalls, Lundy, Ramsey, Skomer, or maybe just upriver.

I'll be on the river tomorrow from 11:00ish. Sea conditions permitting, may take the tender (Avon R3.40 RIB) for a run down to Watwick. The bigger RIB won't be in the water, so offshore isn't an option, unfortunately.

Hey Dai,
Where are you thinking of launching, Dale would be best for Watwick I suppose, Your welcome aboard with me if you do fancy an offshore cruise btw, I would be happy to share the helming if interested, either way be great to meet you, I'll probally launch by PYC, or I might pop in the marina later as they owe me a few days.

Shame your busy Seabay, would be great to meet up, let me know when you can get the time off, and we'll arrange another day.

I'll be running down from Lawrenny.

Thanks for the offer of a run on your RIB - very kind of you. There's likely to be some other RIBs with me tomorrow, though, so I'd better stick around with those guys this time.

welcome anytime Dai, fully understand you've aready made plans and hopfully see you at Watwick tmo for a while, be worth having footwear there btw if you plan on having a splash, my Daughter stood on a weever there the other week. and it took three weeks to heal properly.
I'm looking to head toward Skomer after Watwick, maybe get to see some seal pups around Jack Sound, which should be pretty calm with these small tides, especially at slack 2h after HW, and with the light winds forcasted I might even try a spot of fishin in the Goose race. a friend wants to go fishing up river but I just want to make the most of these small tides. so hopfully see you at some point tmo.

Did'nt you know we also do naked BBQ jumping, one has to be carefull not to burn there beardlocks on the briquettes.


Well it's a wonderfull morning here in Pemb's, with hardly a breath of wind, which I suspect is pretty much the same for most of the UK today, infact conditions are so good that I reckon I could make it to Irland in less than 2hr to the closest point just off Rosslare, but that will have to wait for another day, as I'd prefer the company of a few others for the crossing, so if anyone fancies doing that sometime i'm well up for it.
As for today I think it's gonna be a mystery tour somewhere.
