Steve,

How big is your fuel tank? /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Just had another look, and its now forecasting a 2-6mph Northerly, continuing right through to Sunday.....

Be great getting out there (but only 8deg Friday night - brrrr), but might be a long beat back!

You guys are at least 10 days premature, in taking any notice of the forecast, IMHO of course!

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

Yep..... but heh its fun pretending its anywhere near accurate isn't it!

 

[BlueSkyNick]

IS THIS what you are looking at, or elsewhere?

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

Lol.... no its not what I was looking at... and I'm laughing as the forecast is completely different....

I was looking at this

Please Please Please .....

Just a bit of wind to fill my sails and not make me have to go as a MOBO !!!!

Not too much wind of course .... I think my Crew after a good curry can provide the rest !! .... I'm only a small boat ...

yea well that site as giving a maximum of 3mph all through this Sunday only the previous day - they got the direction bang on but the speed was a little out!

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

Its homing in now.....5 days out, so getting more realistic....

Now forecasting NW 11kts.... turning SE 8kts for Monday.....

So it looks like its downhill both ways..... [--word removed--]!

Good grief, do you really believe a forecast this far ahead?

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

No...... but I am a VERY good dreamer....
