Adam F Posted May 19, 2010 Report Posted May 19, 2010 OK, OK - so we havent even left for the first trip of the year yet... but I'm planning on getting over (and have the brownie pass to prove it!) for the 48hr comp.... weather permitting. So!! Who fancies 3 days in the 'Islands' from 18th June to the 20th?? 1.) JV - Adam, Alun and Ian Quote
Maverick Martin Posted May 19, 2010 Report Posted May 19, 2010 AWOL Crew TBA but probably Dean and maybe one other Martin Quote
Wight Magic Posted May 25, 2010 Report Posted May 25, 2010 Crew needed if anyone is interested please call on 07775820676 Dave Quote
great white Posted May 26, 2010 Report Posted May 26, 2010 Do we Fancy it? YES YES YES is it the best way to fish the 48hr comp? MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM not sure Can I get a pass, organise crew and afford it? is my bigest doubt Charlie Quote
TomBettle Posted May 26, 2010 Report Posted May 26, 2010 Would if I had the funds, but things are a little tight. Just for the record, Topeing may be rather slow then. They have Tope all year around apart from Mid June to early August when they seem to "usually" disappear for a while. Quote
Graham Nash Posted May 26, 2010 Report Posted May 26, 2010 As I only get back from holiday the weekend before this, how much is it likely to cost for the weekend? and would anyone have space? Quote
Adam F Posted May 28, 2010 Author Report Posted May 28, 2010 As I only get back from holiday the weekend before this, how much is it likely to cost for the weekend? and would anyone have space? Looks like a few of the boats have space. Give Dave Evans a call on Wight Magic. Costs? Depends on the boat and how far you go! JV is one of the more economical boats and I use just over 1l per N/M. The last 4 day trip cost Quote
Adam F Posted May 29, 2010 Author Report Posted May 29, 2010 Just 3 weeks to this trip! Has anyone had any luck on crew? I see we have 4/5/6 boats down but most need crew? 1.) JV - Adam, Alun and Ian 2.) AWOL - Dean, Martin +1? 3.) Pheaton - Duncan +1 4.) Serenity - Tony + 1? 5.) White Magic - Dave +2/3? 6.) Alfresco - tentative? 7.) Quest II - tentative? Quote
Wight Magic Posted May 29, 2010 Report Posted May 29, 2010 Wight Magic has crew now 3 or may be 4 Dave Quote
Adam F Posted June 13, 2010 Author Report Posted June 13, 2010 Bump. Dave and I have agreed our plan of action, so Wight Magic and JV will be leaving Poole at 5.30am and pretty much heading straight over, day 2 around the idland and day 3 fishing back over the channel. Are any of the other boats confirmed with passage plans? Quote
duncan Posted June 13, 2010 Report Posted June 13, 2010 (edited) one the one hand the wedding (no 2 son) that's been dominating things for the last 6 months is now over (although I have about 1000 images to sort out...) - but on the other I won't have Phaeton ready. So I'm out this time round (again). still hopeful I can get back to normal for Weymouth - and start to join in all round. this should ensure that the fishing and weather is great (again) for everyone else Edited June 13, 2010 by duncan Quote
alun j. Posted June 13, 2010 Report Posted June 13, 2010 Forecast I'm looking at looks great for next weekend !! Quote
Maverick Martin Posted June 13, 2010 Report Posted June 13, 2010 Unfortunately Dean has cocked up with his work dates so AWOL will not be going again Martin Quote
Gas Posted June 13, 2010 Report Posted June 13, 2010 Abode may take part on the return trip to Alderney subject to weather and hopefully White Magic as buddy boat. Its Jackie Quote

Rob Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 Craig, This is gonna cost ya a new wardrobe!!!!! It's your funeral! Was nice knowing you! Let us know if a frying pan round ya head hurts more than a treble! Laters Captain Hook. Rob Quote
Gas Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 Thanks for your input Charlie but I think I have all those bases covered as Jackie will have to pack a bag for the caravan I will tell her that we will be going out to the Rips and sleep on the boat Thursday as a 5am start so technically all I have to do is sneak the bag aboard. Robs points I am more worried about I will need to come up with a plan to cover that anyone have any bright ideals, help needed if I am going to pull this off. Quote
duncan Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 the best plan is to turn it into a question, or soft challenge ie the weather's great why don't we head into Alderney (or Cherbourg which is only an hour from the Rips and is all pontoons ) instead of back to Poole and out again tomorrow? don't forget passports Quote

Like it Duncan but we don't hold passports. Quote
duncan Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 leaves - "why don't I buy you dinner in Alderney tonight rather than back to Poole?" but you get the drift Quote
Adam F Posted June 14, 2010 Author Report Posted June 14, 2010 I bet you dont forget your health insurance this time Craig!! Quote
