Anyone on the Solent Sunday?

[FUBAR]

Keep an eye out for a 'cuddly' bloke on a Princess 46 out of Lymington

I think we should organise PH's first ever floating meet?

We'll be out tomorrow, Fairey Huntsman 28, race no 333 and union jacks.

Will wave!

I will probably be on the solent tomorrow heading for weymouth most likely. Are you going out to watch the P1 powerboat racing? Saw them practicing today - twin unsilenced v8s.

[FUBAR]

Didnt even know the P1s where on. Was a spur of the moment decission.

May have to have a lookie.

Boat's called 'Anna Treacle' btw. Give us a wave

i'm sat in my office in the Lymington Marina all weekend... looking out over the Solent full of lucky sods enjoying themselves!

hey ho....

Evening all. Nice day out today but not much wind. Now sitting in the cove at weymouth harbour.

No one on here was in a boat called plonker that broke down? Quite amusing hearing the coast guard calling him.

[FUBAR]

Most excellent day

The Hog Roast @ Buckler's Hard was very good...


But the P1s were better

Im burnt to a crisp. Suncream is for shirtlifters

[MattYorke]

I saw you. The boat was looking beautiful, as always.

Actually, I saw a number of Fairey derivatives on Sunday. Were you having an Owners Club day out or something?

Lovely boats

Nope, rally and dinner in Cowes weekend after G'wood.

I saw a spearfish and two Dell Quay rangers, and one Swordsman, not many other about.

there was a v nice loud Cigarette though!!

The one in red? Tony Toll's old boat, recently under new ownership. Tony now has an apache 41, which he was out in as well.

Yep Red one...what a noise....glorious noise....

[FUBAR]

Yep, saw hi/it too.

I guess the other 'bad ass' noisy powerboats running up and down the line of spectator boats where 'sponsor's boats'? A nice distraction from the racing

We siddled up to what must of been a Sunseeker demo boat (not sure of the model), about a 50ft flybridge thinking "you're not so big and clever" then its big brother appeared and we slipped off with our tail between our legs/engines/rudders
