Scuttlebutt Cherbourg Cruise 2015

Re: So Much for Plan A.

Hi Jim, Sailfree (Roger). Mentioned earlier in the thread he may be cruising this week so don't worry if he doesn't reply to your PM straight away. If he doesn't respond by tomorrow I'll send him a text to let him know you're coming.
 
Re: So Much for Plan A.

Took one for the team .... Left Brighton yesterday , realising that was my last chance to get West this week , so sitting it out in Cowes now until my mates get here and leaving Friday for the crossing , boat show tomorrow if anyone knows of a cheap ticket ? ... See you in Cherbourg .... :)
 
Re: So Much for Plan A.

Just to confirm that - subject to the weather moderating sufficiently for a Friday crossing - we're coming!

That's me and one crew aboard Seachord.

Will PM Sailfree so we're on the spreadsheet - what info does he need?

Jon

If I recall correctly:

Forum name (including for any crew member if relevant)
Your real name
Boat name
Boat model
Number of people on board having dinner
Number of people going to wine tasting
Arrival date.
Point of departure and planned itinerary
Mobile phone number
Email address

Have I missed anything, anyone?

Sorry for silence been a bit busy.

Weather looks good.

Broad reach over on Friday, Poole Wind Guru has little cloud for Saturday and 22 deg so hopefully Cherbourg will be similar but light wind SW on Sunday so its either motoring weather or I will be launching my virginal spinnaker on Sunday!

Compiling spreadsheet tonight so if you don't get it tomorrow I either don't have your e mail address of I noted it wrongly. Jungle Jim is on the list.

It's looking increasingly like I won't be doing the cruise on Ellida on account of numerous tedious reasons, but if anyone has space / needs crew (Fri morning - sun night hopefully) let me know :) cheers
 
Update

Scallywag now 3 people on board. All three would like dinner on Saturday.

Keeping a sharp eye on the forecast(s)!

I will be leaving Wareham Thursday, picking up a buoy in Poole ready to leave early Friday (0400 to 0500).
So I could pick you up at Poole Quay / Marina any time Thursday night.
