For four years in a row I've had the intention to go but some element of life as conspired to balls it up so have not got there.

Again this year there is the intention to go and another in our river has already booked a place.

Who else will I mis seeing again at Oostende this year as no doub't some disaster will befall me three days before we leave.

We'll be going, probably same routine as last year. ie: skive off a few days early and have a mini cruise through the delta before heading to Oostende.
 
We missed last year - but as always, family and weather permitting we'll try and make the trip...
Like Sailorman we'll try and leave early Thursday morning...

I quite like Oostende, is the vooranker basically a tall ships/OGA mashup? Do you have to stay in the fish dock marina? I tried a night there and the swell was terrifying. I've spent a few nights in visits staying in the inner marina and thought it was quite jolly being in the heart of the city.
 
Local boat and forumite Spirit, Nic39, which is just having a topsides respray and hopefully a new bow thruster which I've got to start this week.

(let the annual red diesel debate begin...............)

This is us http://www.oostendevooranker.be/en/visit/boat/spirit

Only just qualifying for the 40 years.

Hope the surgery goes well and you don't get hit by the ton of lead as it pours out!
