It would be great to get a good turnout, let me know if you are coming and if anyone is in two minds so we can gently persuade them .

Sorry I can't make this one
I'm ski-ing instead
Hope you all have a great day out - I'll give you a wave as I pass overhead

Howard

Please stay behind me in my old boat with the old sails or ill have to pay you double the amount you paid me for it to keep you behind

Paul

[Liam]

That is a fast boat. Don't know why you sold it.

[hhawkes]

I'm not complaining

Howard.

[Erling]

If we want the Finch boys to come we must hope for 13 or 14 knots of wind because under that its to little wind and above to much.

[Mark Aldridge]

That is a fast boat. Don't know why you sold it.

What? Do you have a new boat Paul???

[Liam]

If we want the Finch boys to come we must hope for 13 or 14 knots of wind because under that its to little wind and above to much.

That's a bugger, Windguru says 12 knots.

I'm going to sharpen my bow to make it cut through the ice better.

[simon]

Im hoping for 25 plus knots, can get out on the side them.

[Paul Craft]

Just to let you know I spoke to Datchet this week and they are looking forward to welcoming us on Saturday.

It would be great if we can get 10 plus boats, the wind is looking like 15 to 17 mph / 11 to 15 knots which would be great for a blast.
