Went today, lovely weather for it. Lots of lovely boats, lots of lovely beer, bit of a lack of variety and a little bit smaller this year. YBW people seemed very busy. Managed to find an out of production replacement opening portlight for Habebty and got some sail quotes. Have to say it was still worth catching the 0600 from Norwich and getting home at 2100 - SIBS is always better than LIBS. The big mobos seem to be getting bigger with lots more people in suits looking round them. Less people looking at the smaller boats though.
One or two familiar names not there (Navimo, Cactus, and a few more)
The miserable looking French woman selling unfeasibly expensive Plasticraft lampshade bases was there as usual - does anyone ever buy one?
Very busy today for preview day.

Afraid it looks like we're going to miss it this year, too much to do, which is not popular with the family as SIBS is one of our favourites.

Maybe LIBS...

Bring cash - I still need to settle tonight's bar bill.
It seems I am able to drink beyond my means.

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

No can do...

Ironically will be in Portsmouth, but dropping daughter off for a week on a tall ship, TS Royalist.

We were there on Friday, a nice day out, much enjoyed, and great weather (forecast wrong again!!). And met a nice bunch of chaps in the RYA Lounge at lunchtime, too, turned out they were from West Mersea
