Lymington - Oct. 31

Adam · 22-10-2004, 02:28 PM

Planning on doing one or two tests with our raceboat before de-rigging for the winter. Was wondering if anyone else felt like bringing their boats along for a run. Could be a chance for a good blast round and a spot of lunch aftrewards in the Waterloo Arms!

Planning on going out from Lymington on Sunday 31st October - high tide is around mid-day. Weather depending and also a possibility of a filming company doing an article on 3C from Portsmouth (date unknown) which would have to come first.

We will probably have our RIB there as well with photographer.

Are we still looking to meet at lymington, because i will have to re-fuel somewhere, as i will be coming from northney marina.

Adam · 25-10-2004, 09:57 AM

Lymington works well for us - as the slipway is good with pontoons available. Also this time of year it is nice and quiet and there should be space in the car park as well.
