solent to c.i. this weekend

[TP3]

Dont supose anyones going to channel islands this weekend, we've done this trip before but travelling with young children this time so starting to worry, would be good to cross in company, safety in numbers and all that. planning to leave sat or sun morning 20 kt to st pp, weather permiting of course.

Going 2PM Friday if that's any help. Rather take the Easterly wind with the tide!

If thunderstorms turn up then may go Saturday AM. Cruising at 23 knots
