Informal rendezvous at East Cowes for anyone interested this weekend

[superheat6k]

Colhel of this parish is arranging a gathering if anyone is interested at East Cowes.

Not sure about a two nights for the price of one presently, but details here. Bookings with ECM required by tomorrow apparently. Mobo's welcome. But the marina will be stacked out Saturday as it is a Bank Holiday.

Hmmm.. Tempting.. What's the proposed plan? When will you be leaving and from where? What's the expected return time on Monday?

Not sure what's happening here, but as this is a raggie organising it, pi** up and brewery could a familiar phrase. But I did call yesterday and they confirmed 8 plus boats and we'll each get an extra night free. I also said, if we get a mix of sail and power boats to mix us all in and we'll work out the rafting ourselves (i refer you to the above phrase).

How many boats do you have going at the moment Colin ?

Henry

 

[colhel]

Not sure Henry. I've just spoken to the Marina and they have told me they have reserved some spaces for us, but, some are ringing up and being turned away because (according to the lady in office) they aren't saying they're part of the YBW Rally.
So,please if anyone has problems booking please let me know.

and we'll each get an extra night free.

I think you may find that the extra free night is a voucher for a free night not including weekends.

This was the case when I booked a rally there.

Hi

I am boat alone this weekend and am thinking of coming over to Cowes on Saturday from Emsworth as the weather looks nice. Is there definitely a meet at East Cowes and does anyone know if there is space? I will call the marina in the morning but any replies welcome!

 

[colhel]

The meet up is scheduled for Sunday-Monday. When you call the marina, be sure to tell them you're with the YBW rally. Hope you can make it
