Q&a

Does anyone have any questions at all they want to throw at me about the poker run weekend?

There might be 5 more places coming up on the run, I'm waiting on confirmation of mooring availability but it's looking very possible, people on the reserve list will get priority so if your wanting on get your name on it fast.

13 weeks on saturday and counting

Mike

I am looking to arrange and alternate date incase the weather is abismal..

I'll post this as soon as it's confirmed with the ship inn!

I know the pirates of the solent event is the end of May so ill dodge that date!

I'm hoping for mid may or mid June as a good back up date.

Any thought or opinions are welcome

Mike

Question

It will have to be really bad to be called off like, it will be close enough to get the weather right but not so close to cause you lads any hassle.

It's just a back up plan that I really think we should have due to our weather.

All trailers can be parked. The boats ramp is on a promanade, once parked it's just a short walk back!
Even if the promenades full there's a few other places to park!
