Blade Run 2006...any one entering?

[Nautorius]

Just seen that it is nearly time forthe 2006 Blade run. It is apparently £1500 to enter a boat and you get 4 nights partying for that! (must be good parties) May be worth watching it go/return, I am sure there will be lots of eyecandy /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif. Even the Cheeky girls are on a boat.

Nothing to do with me but I do fancy the parties. Do you think a 23ft diesel Finnish sports cruiser will make the grade? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif Maybe GC1 should sign up on his return....

those parties would pale into insignificance against our planned Cobb and Ipod beach BBQs I promise you.......... /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

what's more I bet we post pics they wouldn't dare too...

just need that weather window first week of August

I got an e-mail from Gumball 3000 office with details, but my boat isn't fast enough.

I notice that Matthew Devlen - a regular Gumballer - is taking part in the Blade Run. He's always good for a laugh.

Not fast enough?

Mind me asking what boat you have? engine hp?

thanks

It's an Beneteau Antares 650 with a 90 hp outboard! Top speed 27 knots downhill.

In the Gumball Rally I drive a Porsche, which is a bit faster than the boat.

We have recieved an invitation to the blade run event and are currently looking for further sponsership to achieve an entry!

Unfortunately our students loans wont stretch that far! If you are interested or have any suggestions please dont hesitate in dropping us a line...
