According to the forecasters the weather is due to improve so fingers grossed on that one.
How are we all looking?
Ready to rumble?

Hi Mike
Hopefully going to Abersoch on Saturday, so will fire up the opti & have a look around the boat & trailer, hopefully we can put her in at Abersoch a few times before the poker run
All the best

The course has been set today and it's a good one, roughly 7 mile per leg!
Few things from today.. There is the odd net or pot marker buoys about so just be vigilant of these whilst under power, also everyone is to stay min 500 metres away from the windfarms!
Other than them little points it's all looking splendid

8am at the boat ramp should be ok, half hour earlier would be better, reason being is the driver / crew briefing which is mandotory for safety and insurance purposes is at 10am. This wouldn't leave you a lot time to launch, get parked up, get to Piel and moor up, drop all you gear and so on! I will get someone to meet you at the walney slip on the Saturday to show you the way to Piel.
Mike
