Rich have you got correct time for Friday? I thought we were loading 4pm not 7:30 am?!

[michael]

Rich, loading time?
Michael

[Rich B]

1600hrs Friday Michael

[Rich B]

Haha yes Claire you are right. 1600hrs not 0730hrs. Had a nightmare with Nabble tonight lol.

[Pete Reed]

Phew, thank goodness, I can unset my alarm clock! 🤣

Is there a date / time to unload the boats or are they being left on the trailers in preparation for Morbihan and Cork?

Pete

[Rich B]

That is a very good point Pete. I have a row suggested for the Tuesday but will be guided by the Morhbian and Cork organisers as to whether we postpone that Bingo row to another day. It does seem a lot of work to shift boats about twice, especially the galleys. Watch this space Rich

[Pete Reed]

It's mainly the upper galley that is difficult. The others are easier to unload and load

Msg for Chris W....towing Gladys
Back on the first thread for this,  i think you were able to offer me a lift with Claire (who turned into Pete!) And Matt,  but you called me Kathy......
All getting a bit mixed up here.... but please can I just ask you to kindly confirm that you've got car space, and if so,  all of us meet at Nigel's Saturday morning at 07.30?

Thank you

[nigel]

….and, Frances, if you don’t have a place with Chris then there will be space in my car……

[Chris Waterworth]

Hi Frances, I believe Claire said she didn’t need a lift, so should be you, Pete and Matt. Yes meet at Nigel’s Sat morning.

[KeithY]

I can 3 people a lift if needed

[Frances]

Thank you, Chris, I'll be outside Nigel's at 07.30.
And thank you Nigel,  for the back up offer.
Whatever we end up doing,  we must make sure we don't have anyone towing all on their own,  it's safer to have an extra person in the car

Hi Frances.

I’ll see you Friday. Change of pickup time with Chris. FYI. It will be later. He will let you know.

[Chris Waterworth]

Will plan to leave Nigel’s about 09.00 on Saturday to arrive Hamble Point 09.45’ish

[Frances]

Message received Chris, thanks

[KeithY]

Mabel team, I am towing the beautiful lady to Hamble but won't be there till 10.30 so you only need to be there to meet me then.
Racing doesn't start till 2pm so we have lots of time.

[Matt O’Neill]

Rob Thompson is picking me up on the way, we should be at Langstone for 8:30 to help out.
Rob has a people carrier so can offer lifts to Hamble etc. if needed

[Frances]

Thank you Keith,  for towing Mabel, on behalf of the Mabel crew.
I'm not absolutely certain,  but i think those of us travelling with the other boats being towed, will probably travel at times previously arranged, in order to help out with the general unload at Hamble Point Marina.
Hopefully there will be enough of us still there when Mabel arrives to get her in the water.
