Ocean Lady being launched on Friday!

[sailorman]

Much bigger fuel bill punching the tide.....and still a large percentage loss on your SOG.

We obtained fuel ( cash only/ ullage ) from the barge outside St Kats

Just thinking outloud really

Wondered what the noise was

We are aiming for last week of September, so we'll see who is available when the time comes.

I am on annual leave that week, only trouble is I have just booked a week on a beach in the canaries - sorry I am out!

Might be about this Friday morning though. Got to be at Brightlingsea by HW-1.

Hope to be aboard Thursday night so should be around Friday to give support at launch time.

Are you bringing the champagne and canapés?

Certainly not, the owners provide comestibles

:-D well, I'll see what I can do! Am coming up straight from work tonight and then will be antifouling the patches over night - could probably do with a glass of bucksfizz for breakfast!

[wingdiver]

I was on site at around 10:45 and she was about to be launched......!!
Let us know how things go.

 

[Athene V30]

Sorry, I didn't make it. Bit of a lie in, then a few jobs at home! Well I am supposed to be on holiday!

Nice boat Lisa!

Tried to get a berth in Foxes for this evening but none available unfortunately. Anchored in the Stour at present but coming up your way tomorrow to Neptune Marina, Ipswich (we got the last berth available, but it's by the bar that's open to 1am with the tables outside...) to check out the maritime festival.

Hope trip to St Kats goes well.
