There will be no supermarkets or booze available, Sea monsters, and Maelstrom whirlpools will add interest along with the burnt our remains of Fabian.

N Atlantic Swell guaranteed to induce sea sickness.

There will also be navigational hazards to overcome such as semi submerged containers to add dents and unmarked kreels to foul all stern gear.

Skippers must be certified lunatics and crew should be diagnosed as psychopaths.

Sounds like a fun trip! When do you propose to go? Just in time for the autumn gales in order to get maximum benefit, I suggest.

How many takers do you envisage?

I agree we should wait for the Autumn Gales to really get going.. I was also going to stipulate that boats should really be open boats of not more than 18 feet

Count me in!
We have only made South Rona this season. Is North Rona much farther?

Proposal. Leave Kyles on friday night, return sunday afternoon. Got to be back for my tea or wifie will get upset.

I can take three. Experience not neccessary, this should be a gentle cruise in company, anyone got preference for sandwiches?

I'm really inspired to sign up for this venture and suggest that you get it on the statute books before it gets swallowed up by the monstrous
ChayCliparound theearBlythes rapidly expanding empire.
I suggest that we have a specific kit list and would expect to see Dunlop Magisters as the standard footwear, canvas mid calf length shorts, a string vest, smelly, paint covered smock and a daft woolly hat.
I think we should all be made to smoke pipes and I would ask that Mirelle is paid to lead the whole shoot.
On these conditions, I'm yer man.

I'd like Pemmican and Brown sauce sandwiches - on stale bread without butter - oh and I could do a cauli coulis dribbled on a bed of kelp with dogfish eyes wellington.

Re: Kit

This kit seems wholly appropriate.. may I add a chest wig and stick on chin stubble?

Whistlins' fine for a zephyr
Cauli's good, brocoli's better
Some say noodles, some say cheese
Beans are best to catch that breeze

Nah, Nah...

Beans, beans are good for the heart
The more you eat, the more you fart
The more you fart, the better you feel
Eat beans with every meal
