JonC Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Anyway,enough about Me, so let’s get back on topic. For those of us that don’t know the area what sort of kit are we likely to need, I will probably need to gather a few bits together so it would be handy if I know what I need to go shoplifting for in advance.

Geoff Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) With regards to the Chinos, I still have my smart new unworn M&S jobbies that are waiting to be displayed! All other insinuations will of course be ignored as usual. Geoff. Edited June 7, 2021 by Geoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saintly Fish Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 So I did the honourable thing today and went to trial run banana wharf. You’ll all be pleased to know that the food is great and they sell “Brooklyn lager” on tap.

Saintly Fish Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 The weekend of the boat meet also happens to be the same date as the round the island race. I recommend fishing marks are kept to the mid to north of the solent. Here is a link for info on the racing. http://www.roundtheisland.org.uk/web/code/php/main_c.php?map=rir21b&ui=rir5&style=std&override=§ion=competitors&page=starttimes Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep a sharp watch and don't assume that everyone will know/see that you're anchored. That said, we'll have a great vantage point to watch the race. 👍 #stayalertstaysafe Saintly Fish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy135 Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 To build on my post above, according to the race instructions the start/finish marshalling areas are north of Cowes/South of Bramble Bank. It will be thick with sailboats in these areas, probably throughout the day. Recommend the Outlaws avoid these areas as the potential for WAFI clusterfuckery is high. http://www.roundtheisland.org.uk/web/pubs/2021/RIR21-SailingInstructions.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonC Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Do you usually display a day shape when at anchor? I always do when it’s busy, loads of sailing boats use our river. They probably don’t know what they mean but it will give you a better argument in the event of a collision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My patch is the East Wight area where there's a bit less traffic. I should still get a black ball though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
