Ok I have made up my mind...
      #1908906 - 26/06/2008 21:01

After watching the weather forecast over the past week to see if I could get over to Ireland this weekend, I have made a decision.

We are going on the Fast Cat.

2hrs on the fast Cat against 10hrs like a cork in a bottle in F5-6 I'm disappointed not to be taking the boat............. but!

Made a phone call and got a berth on a friends boat (he lives over there) out on Friday and home on Sunday, About the same price as taking my boat.

Primarily this is to see the "Sea Stallion" (Viking Ship) leave Dublin to return to Norway. Well that's the excuse I'm using. Dublin should be good this weekend!

Correct...........and proud of it too!

Ahhh! sat at the bar with a drink whilst somebody else worries about tides, fishing boats, nets, rocks, engines, navigation................

I must remember to ask what the poor people will be doing whilst I'm in the lap of luxury.

What's all that about then?

At least you won't have to face the ignominy of having the Sea Stallion overtake you.
