The Aussies have challenged us.

Well how many can we put together?

And by my reckoning you need about 15hp per person plus say 1000 for the boat so who's got something with 3500hp+ that we can weld a gantry to?

I'll clean out the blowers on the 6354s, anti foul being done next month I'm pretty sure the old Colvic will do the job across the Estuary

In fact.... I recall trolling a few lines last year without many hitches... my guess is 180 people, holding on to 180 braided lines all attached to 2 X 100x100 4.8m PAR gaffer taped to the stern. Job done

Maybe we could do it at the Olympics down here in Weymouth, we have a couple of those 90mtr Condor ferries than do 40knots over the channel islands, must have 30000hp easily :-)

Health&Safety would have a fit though...

Better not tell you where those ferries were built!
