I would like to inform everyone that I have formed a new club for those amongst us who like storm chasing and just want to do on water with others ... we share the experience and just imagine what stories we can bring back!
The idea is to have some real white water rapids style fun but out in the open sea. Its easy to join, to qualify you just need:-
1. A planing power boat no longer than 21 feet. If your is too long we accept hacksaw jobs.
2. Have voted in the previous thread as having been out in at least an f10 - those that made the f10 grade will be storm crew, the f11 brigade will be the first mate and the f12 brigade can skipper the boat.
3. Drogue experience is not required as that would slow the boats down - parachute experience - with the para in the air is a bonus and admiral status is awarded to those that have para sailed in a f12.
Now a fair number of you qualify for this lot - I will not accompany you of course as I will just organise each event from my home but I will be at the Quayside to see each group off - I realise there will be little point in waiting for their return.
