As a newbie to these, would like to come if children/dates/weather permits. Bit bigger maybe than expected (43ft) but smaller ones welcome to raft up on the outside

Puggy,
it is of course all very weather dependent and no-one's going to be sticking their necks out !
You are very welcome, though I suggest we speak to marina people nearer the time.

For all you folks heading to Poole
If you hadn't noticed I have put a copy of Poole Tides for 2013 here:
http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?348131-Poole-(Quay)Tides-Available
You will see that they show 1st and 2nd highs
Note that sometimes 1st high is highest and sometimes 2nd high is highest.

I hope to have my new(?) Macwester 27 ready in time for this. I am heading for Galway West of Ireland and this would be a great start to what I hope will be a slow trip, stopping at all the pubs, sorry, sorry, all the ports between Kemps Quay and Galway Bay Sailing club.
Count me in please.

Hi Ron,
you're in then !
Please note it's all weather dependent, I always feel a bit uneasy planning in advance to a schedule.
In case they don't see it I'll pass on your kind comments to PhillM and Ru88el who are doing all the real organsing.
Lady In Bed,
Ta for that, I've found Poole the sort of place one really needs an almanac or local tide tabe, especially if going up to Wareham; I used to nip into Piplers chandlery on the quay but that's a long walk round now.

Hi Chubby,
the grand plan is for those boats leaving Chichester harbour to set off on Thursday 25th April, staying at East Cowes Marina, then Lymingtons' Berthon Marina on Friday, Poole Town Quay on the Saturday.
Everyone to return as they and the weather see fit, some including me hope to stay on a bit longer to visit Wareham and South Deep.

Just caught this thread.
Definite maybe from Me in OPUS. But will arrive from the west. Or South, but not the muddy racetrack of the Solent!

Mudisox and RadiumRob,
great, hope you can make it; please keep us posted on here - or PM me - so we can keep tabs on numbers and sizes of boats to warn marinas about.

Bearing in mind how it went last year, isn't it about time PhillM commenced the collection of information a pictures for the Spotter's Guide? (at this stage I went to insert a smiley but couldn't actually work out which was which)

You are quite right, the date of this adventure is a bit obscure. It needs to be added to the top of Ru88ell's list (#133) of Runner & Riders and carried forwards each time.

Well SeaJet seems to have a date and a set of locations and a number of forum members seem to think, me included that these are the dates. See thread #130:
