Meet up with Robbie 11.08.12

[ian]

Met up with Robbie today, The idea being to take some action shots as we thought the Solent would be calm like rest of the week...............WRONG going across to Cowes we encountered between 1 & 2 Meter swells really close together.
FT was down to 9 knots at 1 stage and even nose dived into a wave which washed over the bow and dumped a load of water over crew in cockpit :evil:

Pictures OK but quality suffered as camera got soaked when we too went over one wave then through the next. So much water come over the windscreen we were drenched.
