Why don't we simply agree, if it is possible, that they were going faster than they would normally...

What a very strange attitude you have, GBgaffer. The video is a bit of fun from a nice adventure. You say in your first post "without wishing to detract from your story" and then try to detract from it, and then you say "Not wishing to be contentious" and then proceed to be contentious. If it makes you happier, let's just say we were doing 9 knots. As I say, it doesn't matter the exact speed, that would be missing the point of the whole thing.
I bet you give the punchlines to other peoples' jokes in the pub as well.

Sorry, didn't realise that you were one of those people who don't want the facts to get in the way of a good story. My comments were purely to correct the impression that Lymington ILB were doing something unprofessional.
Cheers

Both Lymington and Yarmouth crews were extremely professional and extremely good humoured. Nice bunch!

It did, I sent it on Monday, and that was the exact amount I thought was appropriate. I've also joined again.
