TBC Jon,are you fishin`.

When we took Gee "Home" last year to Jersey we were pleasantly surprised to meet a few older characters that had worked on her in the late 60's.

Chris and I were shown where Gee used to be mored etc.

Probably the majority of the talk was that Gee had left Guernsey in a 6 blowing 8 - once in Jersey tied up - to find that the Jersey HM welcomed us in as the first boat arrival of the day at 18.30.

Fortunately on arrival we had a glass of Champagne with Toby Clayson - He then took us to a damn good place to enjoy a Steak!

It was actually rather civil Bif, after we left the restaurant, the owner of the boat wanted to party some more.

I clearly had to have an early night.

Imagine my surprise at 01:00 when 3 Honolulu birds came on board for a late night drink.

The owner of Gee is a very bad boy.
