charts to Solent

[D3B]

Silly me....
I posted on MOBO asking about charts to get me to the Mercury meet in May....

Tut Tut Douglas.....

you should have asked here first...


Sorry guys....I DO KNOW where to get the best info....

Habit sometimes gets the better of me...

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

Admiralty folio for South Coast Eastern, and Solent Pack.... all you'll need...

 

[D3B]

theres a 5605 On e-bay but always been a suspicious of anything so cheap....

 

[Phoenix of Hamble]

Very good price!

New 8th edition due in July, but 7th would still be perfectly useable IMHO....

 

[D3B]

Bought!
+ tough chart 1 Solent and approaches....

Just need to think of Pilot books now....

Easy.
When you get to Dover,dodge the ferries then keep the land to the right.

About halfway, theres a sodding great cliff. If you observe carefully you may see someone jumping off it.

Nothing much to hit if you stay offshore a bit, and its all deeper than 1.2m so no problem.

If you listen to VHF Ch16 just count the increasing radio checks. Its an indication you are within 20 miles of the end.

When you see a Plastic Armada whizzing about with no apparent direction, you've arrived.

For intimate personal delivery service, turn off the engine and toss a white smoke flare over the stern, then call the RNLI for a tow 'back' to Mercury. Saves on time fuel and cost of charts.

If you're interested I have a 'Shell Channel Pilot' by Tom Cunliffe, 5th edition (2006) which we bought last summer for our delivery trip from Poole to the Deben.

No intention of going back there so it's looking for a good home and is in 'as new' condition.

PM me if its of interest.
