Hi Bob and Co. Going to be getting in early at QAB I suspect. Little bit of boat prep to do in morning first thing. Bring on the Big Boy!
Will be good to chase you boys around cans! Can't wait...gonna be quicker though tomorrow ;-)
Can't wait. Weather is growing northerly which should be good for us. Sea state slight to moderate. Low tide around lunch time so puuuuuurfect!

Well boys I have to confess, we took too long to prepare (got to QAB at 11) and arrived too late on a big spring low. Though not to be put off Nikki and i went to Chandlers and then Champ (a) turned up. So then the burger arrived and the tide remained low, seemingly forever. Then the wind started a bit more than Met Office suggested and and and ....
OCR boys are the boys today. Watched from afar guys and sorry not to get out there but messed up on timings.
Those Kingsbridge boys? I take my hat off to 'em!! But will see you out there soon.
Rich

Got in 1/2 hour before low tide at Mount Batten (only got camper a little bit stuck) took sponsors out as planned (lots of laps around sound) perfect conditions !! back to MB Pub ffor lunch about 2ish !!
I did wonder what happened to the locals.
Torquay tomorrow !! Still a chase boat short but no doubt will manage.
