Dave,
You must have had quite a journey from Nottingham!
It is worth the effort though, such a lovely spot to sail.
We must have the same luck, I missed the ice cream boat that day with Morris too!
If you ever plan another day there, please let me know, it would be good to meet up and take our boats out together.
I am hoping to join the Parkstone Wayfarers one of these days, there is quite a fleet of them!
I was actually considering making the Wareham Channel my next venture, I am not sure if I shall namge another trip this year though.
Keep in touch, perhaps we can arrange something
Regards
