Who's sailing this weekend?

[jellyellie]

Anybody going out for their first sail of the year? Forecast doesn't look too bad if we can avoid the mist and drizzle (yes, that still counts as a relative 'not too bad' given the recent gales leading up to the New Year).

I'm heading across to Newhaven tonight for a night sail, looks like the moon & stars should make an appearance according to XCWeather (http://www.xcweather.co.uk/forecast/brighton), that'd be nice!

Might I see any of you out there?

Nope . Two boats and they're both up on bricks

New one should be in the water in a few weeks though. Officially out of commission undergoing refit, but I think the occasional daysail will have to happen regardless

May be out and about in the Solent. No agenda though.

 

[Sans Bateau]

We may well be on the water, wont go far though. Its been a long time, too long.

I shall be sailing but we're unlikely meet unless someone's navigation (and speed) is a bit unusual.

 

[Zen Zero]

Yes. Planning to get some crew training in before the second leg of the Argentario Winter Championship in which we are currently 6th.

Hey guys, yeah still in Brighton. Great to see you have made the big getaway! How's it going?

 

[Scillypete]

Out for the first sail of the year on the 2nd which was an interesting blast with some big rollers still coming in from the Atlantic.

Was out again today just a shortish beat to St Agnes, ashore for a walk around the island with the dog then back aboard for an easy run back. Still some good sized swells rolling through and the sun even put in an appearance as we approached the harbour.

Blissful

 

[Ripster]

Should get out tomorrow afternoon and stretch the sails down in Torbay and along the coast a bit. Just a day sail, but looking forward to it.

 

[Suttle]

Hoping to get out on Sunday on the Medway and out to the Montgomery, if it doesnt choose then to go bang!

You're more than welcome to take mine out and wait for me if you can manage the tide time in the morning!

Being Cornish, I was amazed by this until I realised you meant the Island I thought you were hard as nails for a moment there

 

[robyonfrome]

Just popping down to Poole quay for the night from Wareham, might even put the sails up on the way down with a south westerly, even poke the nose into the big blue yonder, not very far I know, but it will give the boat an airing and a night out on the quay. Be interesting going down the river with all the water meadows flooded the water is going under the bridge at about 4 knots going to have to get it right coming back or it will take for ever.

I wish, instead I will be on a be on a boat on the hard alongside Poole quay watching robyonfrome sail past whilst I'm at work. I spend most days on the quayside watching the boats going in and out dreaming about my boat haha. Have a great weekend everyone.

Haha, I was tempted to go off for a couple of days to the Helford/Falmouth as the weather is fairly settled, but then there's so many places to go round here so here won out . . . . so far

 

[Sans Bateau]

Just dropped anchor at East Head. Busy here, there is one other boat.

 

[Garold]

Stayed last night a Bucklers Hard and very few people around.

In Cowes Yacht Haven tonight and it's very lively.

Looks like about 15 visitor boats, and until the light totally disappeared, a few boats up and down the Medina River.

Big change from last Saturday evening when there were only a couple of other boats around in the big winds.

Cheers
