Thanks for posting up the report and pics Ian - I don’t seem to be able to find much time anymore to be on here! Anyway it’s good to be back, good to be back fishing after a year off and exciting to have a new toy to play with. JV was great and suited our needs at the time but a floating caravan / fishing boat isn’t needed anymore and the Cheetah is a pure hardcore fast offshore fishing weapon. I really need to learn that when I think ‘ that needs a few weekends work’ it’s usually 6 months! See you all out on the water soon. Adam

Great to be back out for our regular Tues eve trips!

Thanks Gents. Even managed a few hours working on the re-fit on my birthday. Yes, as Rob said, the classic 'only needs a few jobs' has turned into 4 months of every spare leisure hour. Still she will be Franklin standard when finished - hope to launch mid April. I'll see if I can get around to a mini write up on here... but keen to get back fishing after a year off.

Garmin GPSMap 7015 x 2 and GSD24 Black box Transciever. £900 each for the 15” touch screens and £200 for the GSD24 or near offer. All in as new condition.

Wishing you well Trev - best of luck with the new one!

Well done chaps - enjoy the next few days and keep the reports coming. Nice Brill Steve!

Have a great time gents - bloody gutted I'm not able to come - it's been 4 years since my last trip. I get my 2nd jab tomorrow - so too late. I look forward to hearing the daily catch updates....

JV has a 400L tank so enough to get over fish and get back for a 2/3 day trip. Add in a few Jerry cans for good measure. Id only took to do it this way on an exceptional forecast I might add!

We’ve been down today on a 1.2m tide and had up to 2.6 knots tide so pretty much ideal. I wouldn’t want more than that. We we’re chatting onboard today about the possibility of going to Alderney and no going ashore just staying onboard and being self sufficient for a couple of days?

Yes Weymouth is a great plan B - less of a window needed, stay onboard and still some great fishing options. That will be the plan for JV

Might be worth looking at accommodation now - you can imagine their being quite an influx after lock-down easing?....

The Blue Boys are back....

I'll need to book time off work so are we saying 3rd July onward for a trip? I'll book the week off and go when / if a 3 day window allows? It's been years since we did a proper PBSBAC convoy over to Alderney so would be good to get a few boats together - it's the furthest most of us will get this year for a holiday!

Team JV are keen to come over, we’ve not been for 3 years. As weekends start to book up would it be an idea to look at dates and tides?
