OK - who want's to go?????????????
      #1081624 - 21/06/2006 15:55

Heading out from Poole to meander about the CIs, probably based in St PP for most of the time in the first suitable weather window that falls in the first couple of weeks of August. I'm going becasue I enjoyed 5 glorious days over there last year and a single day on Sark was more destressing than 3 whole weeks on the boat in Poole..................

At the moment GC1 is committed, and been promised the functions of safety officer, safety boat, photographer, navigation officer, watch officer and coast guard liason so everyone else can just go along for the crac.............he will however only endore any passage in a F1 or less and is still wavering about his mere 380 mile range for such an undertaking.

Chas25 want's something more challenging than his Solent to Falmouth one day run in his 218 last year; but has spoiled things by getting a 250 thus removing any real element of challenge.................

What's your story?

I'll be going to the CI either lateish Friday 28th July or Sat 29th July (weather pemitting). Then on to the north Brittany coast port hopping with the intentions of ending up spending a few days in St Malo (what a great place).

Going for about 10 days in total.

The more the merrier
