LilBrit Posted January 15, 2014 Report Posted January 15, 2014 Haven't done the Alderney trip before but always fancied it. Please keep me up to speed with plans and any info on how it all works out guys. I would be leaving from Portland. Thanks for the heads up on this one Martin!! Quote
great white Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Posted January 15, 2014 Hi Paul Hope that you are well mate. You would be made very welcome, if you wish to join the trip, Peter and Matt on Freeboys come over from Portland, l am sure they would welcome a buddy boat for a bit more of the crossings than usual.

Matt Posted January 15, 2014 Report Posted January 15, 2014 Hi Paul as Charlie said we go from Portland so would be available to buddy up for Alderney or mid channel wrecking trips. Quote

Ark Posted February 6, 2014 Report Posted February 6, 2014 I think I'd rather put up with Dave's snoring than sleep on the boat, roll on May let's get going Kev Quote
Maverick Martin Posted February 27, 2014 Report Posted February 27, 2014 Just to give this a bump The weather is depressing me a little so I have been reading this again. I am so looking forward to this trip with a little over 10 weeks to wait, fingers crossed for the weather to back off. Any new additions to the list? Martin Quote
Matt Posted February 28, 2014 Report Posted February 28, 2014 Same feeling martin. Just want to point the boat south and go, this weather is a grind though Quote
