Turned up at Skippers meeting on Tuesday to be presented with a nicely printed piece of paper containing a list of way points and an announcement from our poor old Offshore Rear that he would not be going on our long awaited trip to Burham.Having put all the work into arranging the trip,he found the contents of his diesel tank in the bilge.OG is suddenly promoted from not merely pressed ganged into temp Inshore Rear but default temp Offshore rear.No drama really,all of the group going along have 10 times more experience than me and probably could have done this jaunt in their sleep.Think they just wanted somebody to go in front and find all the fishing nets.

Excellent weekend with good food available at the nearbye restuarant.
While away it was all hands to the beer pump,as club had the unexpected delights of around 70 visiting boats looking for moorings.
Next St Kats......and the weather is again looking good.
Where has everyone else been ?

Must have been a F11 at the very least.
