Wind is now showing as being around 4mph just like last Sunday

Looks like all weather forecasts are agreeing - no fog anywhere - good sunny day, but bring the thermals!!!!!

Should be good, but I still have an untrimmable boat as the 'non-return valve in the outdrive is well returning'.

[ian]

Well we all ventured out and "EVEN robbie was out too.

Photo's to prove

It was a really great day and good to get out and streach Salamis's legs. Weather station to Worthing pier on such flat water was one to remember, and then on to Shoreham with virtually no lobster pots.

Ya dont get many days like that off of L.A! And it always seems to be when my boat is in pieces!

[Nick]

Yes it was a great run out today .................. a little bumpy on the way back but a good finish to 2007

At the foot of this page is the same sort of stuff but with wave heights and frequencies.



The "bouy" as they put it, is actually the Greenwich Light ship!


Anyone seen my inhaler.....

Nick,

Sounds to me you want to speak to someone who used to live in Eastbourne. If you know what I mean !!

[Nick]
