Having just watched the forecast, whats the betting Mondays rain puts the river into Red Boards?
I hope the rain forecast for tomorrow stays east so that it doesn't lead to red boards coming back out, we need to move our boat fro Reading to Walton next weekend!
Just booked two nights stay in Penton Hook marina (sat / sun), the plan is to leave Bray on Saturday and stay overnight, then a trip out on Sunday to Hampton Court way, before returning back to Penton Hook for sunday night.
the forecast looks good for the weekend, although I did think that the evening temps might be a bit chilly, so by traveling that way and staying in a marina, at least we can plug the heater on!
I take it you don't have diesel heating on board then?
Get it fitted if not. Stops you being reliant on marinas for heat!!!
My mate Patrick used to just leave his engines running with the floor up! God I miss Patrick... :ambivalence:
CXy is dead right though, just an hour here and there soon takes the chill off on a cool evening or chilly morning! TOG 13.5 quilt helps too!
rather than Penton Hook which is dead, and devoid of things to see!?
So John, how was Penton Hook for you on Sunday night then??
Sorry mate, couldn't resist
Of course not, but we had the majority (8) of the club cruise boats to moor up at once, as well as some catering to arrange, and we bagged 'A' pontoon, all the garden tables and enjoyed a full English afternoon tea, followed by an evening of great company with 21 members, and plenty of Hot Dogs! We met up with the Commodores of PHYC and AMYC and quite a few others while we enjoyed our impromptu BBQ, on the basis we could not guarantee moorings for our fellow club members who deserve being treated properly and shown a good time :encouragement:
I wouldn't go to PH on my own unless there was no alternative however...
The clique went elsewhere, I gather?
