Windfinder
a kite surfin buddy put me onto it a while ago, easier to follow than a pressure chart, was very accurate for the RB08 when I followed it

Hi there Captain and all,
I know matey.....BUT!
Unfortunately, my Navigator and Mechanic has gone AWOL. but we won't go there just now...ey!
So I was thinking of catching up with you all for a few bevies at the evening bash......if that's OK!?......
Unless of courrrrrrrse!...... anyone has an spare seat in their boat.....hint! hint!
Of course I'd chip in for the fuel costs etc.
Anyways, it looks like a good turnout too.
And I'd like to see all the boats together, especially Darren's P25.
It might just give me the incentive I need to get on and finish ours.
Soooo have a great day all and I hope the weather holds.
Cheers
Steve

There is a chance that if the weather gives us a stiff S-Easterly we'll ditch the run into Langstone and instead run over to Ryde Pier. We'll also add a pickup down at the Racing platform just outside Lymington after lunch and ditch the Beauleiu pickup..
I've added the lat & long details of this in case we use it. (Ryde Pier & the Lymington Platform).
Image below is the alternative route in case of strong S-Easterly's (which is unlikely)
Card 1 = Ryde Pier
Card 2 = Lunch stop Portsmouth
Card 3 = Osbourne Bay
Card 4 = Lymington Platform
Card 5 = Newtown Creek
