    avec lifejackets of course.:pac:

    Our boat has a few boardsies, dunno if the skipper would volunteer the boat though.

    I nominate Steve to find the boat :)

    I can't be seen to condone drinking and boating so if I can get away I will head out to keep an eye on things for your own safety.





    Cheers

    When suits people? If finding a boat that will accommodate us all is a problem the alternative could be to head somewhere like the estuary and rent dinghies for a couple of hours and then go for drinks? I'm suggesting a weekend before the end of October. Gets too chilly for me after that :P

    Memories of Celtic Mist and one JCH being rescued of the rocks of Cape Clear Island come to mind.

    Skerries sea tours might be an option http://www.skerriesseatours.ie/ but it can only take 7 people. The estuary sounds good I could bring the micro boat :)

    :D:D

    I'm on, but the vagaries of shiftwork means I'll have to wait and see when/where is decided and I'll know then if I can make it.

    You won't find me out in Dublin Bay on any class of a dinghy though :eek:

    Or this crowd. I've always secretly wanted to to a blitz around Dublin Bay, and up into the port is fascinating!

    Dublin Bay Cruises have a bar on board. Might be a little slower than you expect but it is faster than a dinghy.

    So, genuinely any takers?

    Start naming dates that suit people if you're interested.

    Sundays work well for me.

    I'd be up for a drink or two were I to be in the greater Dublin area on the day/evening/night. No boat here but will bring limes for the G&Ts in recompense!
