Hi Guys,

We had a couple of threads / topics on the go so I thought I would start a new one specifically for this sunday.

I can play in the morning, so in order to make a good start I would like to be down at Warsash by 9 and on the water around half past.

What sorts of times were other people thinking?

If we are all launching from different places at different times, perhaps we should set some rendezvous co-ordinates and a suitable time.

Would love to come out with you guys on Sunday. Is 9.00 on the water or meeting time ? What have you got in mind after we leave Warsash ?

[ChrisParish]

Well I will be down at warsash to set up by 9, aiming to be on the water around half past. @sonny1 will no doubt have been there since 7 or 8 ‘cos he’s an early bird! We will then probably head out of the hamble once @sladonians has made his way down the river from Swanwick. @Roy54 will either be launching from Warsash or meeting us out on the water.

What we do then will depend on the conditions and who is there; what their confidence levels are etc. Maybe head out for a spot of fishing, or exploring followed by a packed lunch at anchor somewhere (roll on pubs reopening!)


It would be great if you could come and join us. The more the merrier.

I was contemplating this trip but I'm in the middle of building a deck in the other half's garden on the south coast and me boat is at home!!

[Roy54]

Ooohhh this is getting exciting now, @Froglet and @harrison maybe coming out. It would be great to see you both again

[Roy54]

@The Hobbit, Andy if only she'd gone for an inflatable deck like your T38, you'd be done by now.

[Froglet]

I've spent the afternoon de-mothballing the boat and engine so chances are good that I'll be there. Gave me a reason to use the engine stand that I built a few weeks ago from left over wood from last years building work.

Clearly I am NOT a carpenter. but it works.

@ChrisParish a quick update, Paul is coming and Andy B will be giving his new boat its inaugural run. Launching Hythe at 10am

I'm getting there!!
