Breaking News!

John Kennett spotted in hard boat on the Solent!

Had a great day today playing in the Solent with some RIB nobbers, fab run down to Yarmouth/totland, lunch in Yarmouth, then a run back in a nice wind against tide sea, which built to quite a messy sea at Calshot, in which I managed to dip the nose at speed, performing quite a 'Flume' impersonation for my passengers

Will post pics/vid later.

OK, I've put a couple of vids together, firstly tho', whilst in Yarmouth, we found a rather odd Gnome, complete with fishing rod, apparently looking for a pond!
