You need to get in touch with Gill at driver's dry berthing:

http://www.dryberthing.com

I'll be along again with my Hunton 37, Aviator. Looks good, and even better she should be performing again this year as we coudn't do over 45 mph because of problems with the turbos last time. Gutted!

No photos handy except online from the weekend, here she is when we were screwing around with the Jet Ski and the boat last weekend (that's me falling off!):

A rebuilt bladerunner should make an appearance with a set of hull modifications!

Not exactly!
Progress is looking good though, if there was a Gantt Chart I'd be nicely in sync with it, but then never make Gantt Charts because I know I'll never stick to them!
Will post some pics this evening.
You still gonna be in the 21?

Gant Charts meerly indicate the possibility of failure, before it happens, rather than it being a nice surprise

IMHO a chart is never a waste of money, that said there are loads of solent downloads on the web cheap GPS is easy. But a Magnetic compass as a back up - in case.
chances are you would need none of it as there should in theory be 30 boats
navigating safely to the checkpoints in company

Only need them if your boat is quicker than the rest

A very basic idea of where things are and a compass should be all you need in the Solent....
