Watchet 17th and 18th May.
      #1821630 - 12/04/2008 22:32

Anyone else up for a Watchet Weekend 17 and 18 May? Tides are around 7 oclock medium size tides. Weather will be 10 to 12 knots SW with sunshine and beer will be free in all the pubs . Well the tide part is true anyway

Sorry but I cant offer anyone a berth as I will probably have the family aboard.If anyone can offer a spare berth to anyone it would be good to see as many faces as possible. Weather Gods permitting of course.

I'd like to go but would I be right in thinking that your SW 10-12 will be right on the nose from Portishead. Is there a wind that would suit us both that you could ask your weather gods for and I'll ask mine as well.
