A bad boy pot noodle is my favorite..(There are others) It's hot and the spice numbs your tongue so you can shovel anything else that comes to hand; in.

This cruise is now closed to crew joining but I am still keeping open a list of people who would like to crew during future charters. This is a NOT FOR PROFIT venture which merely seeks to identify a number of like minded people who would like to equally share the cost of a charter yacht and go...

Hi Gareth. I am pleased to hear you have received such a positive response to your thread. I have had some brilliant voyages and days out with members of this Forum in the past. I will e-mail you about my sailing scheme in the near future. Cheers!

Hi Gareth. I charter yachts for the weekend and go out sailing on the Solent, along the South Coast and across the Chanel. The crew and myself share the charter costs equally and contribute to the ships kitty to cover fuel, moorings and provisions ect. I am a yacht master offshore with a...

The Bramble Bank is quite treacherous, I always think and very badly marked. Never grounded on the bank but admit to a few quick tacks on occasions..:)

I live in Hamble and I am a qualified YMO. Always looking for an excuse to play around on the water. I would certainly be interested in joining you for a sail.

I am travelling from the South Coast and tend to leave the car at a convenient tube station and get a day travel ticket to all London areas.. Rickmansworth is a cost effective tube station because they have a fairly low priced multistory car park close to the tube station That has always been...

During the winter I do non-commercial sailing weekends aimed at people like yourself. It could be a sailing weekend in the Solent or a night sail across the channel to France or Alderney, depending on winds and tides. I am currently looking for a crew to do a distance mile weekend with sextant...

Are you staying in a lot now days?

Apology Due to a change of circumstances I am, unfortunately, no longer able to organize this trip. There was a lot of people who showed an interest though, so if anyone else would like to take it over please go ahead..

I have recently moved to Hamble and I am really keen to get involved in racing on the Solent. I am a Yachtmaster offshore with over 10.000 nautical miles logged. I Worked as a delivery skipper for Halcyon Yachts this spring, which provided me with a lot of long distance sailing. I have also...

I called into Muros last summer on passage to Lexious, Portugal. a great little port with stern to moorings and lazy lines. Ria De Camarines or the little fishing village of Mugia. Also look good, according to the almanac.

Welcome Jon to the Ireland cruise in company. you will certainly be welcome to meet up with the cruise Colin. The start date will hopefully be Monday August 8th. A day later than envisaged but anyone wanting to start on the 7th will be welcome to go ahead and wait for the rest of us at a...

I am storm bound in Bonefactio Corsica today, during a passage across the med. Otherwise winter sailing here is fantastic, warmer than the U.K. Anyone else sailing in exotic places at the moment:confused:

There's not too many to choose from in the South. So I think we will settle for the Isle of Wright. The Lundy Island Race from Ilfracoombe is worth doing as well.;)
