With the weather looking a bit more promising for next weekend, it looks like our Flounder Comp should go ahead on due date.........
Have you seen the windguru forecast this morning??
I'm sure they just pluck numbers out of a hat on a daily basis. 
I hear that Prodigy is going to join in
As Alfresco is currently hiding in the big shed at work, she is ready to launch but could do with a bit more polishing.
I may blag a trip with Gary, Big Bob's old floundering partner [and he has a heater]
to see if I can remember how to catch some flounders.

Still looking for crew for flounder comp for Serenity

Weather seems to be going downhill for Sunday !!!
How bad will it need to be to get postponed??
They are giving over 20 mph SW for midday at the mo.
As the comp is held in the harbour (either Xchurch or Poole - up to you) then the sheltered nature will allow us to fish it in most conditions - launching and retreaving will be the most hazardous I'd guess.
Most forecasts are giving a F5 during the day. I'd say if we start to see any F6 or more in the forecast I'll discuss with the Safety office / comittee and we may re-schedule.

Had planned to fish with Rich on his boat Warren. However I was rammed from behind by a 4x4 when waiting at a round about.The wife's car is a write off and I have a bad back so no fishing of any kind for the moment. Should give others a better chance. Will try and get to the weigh in.
Allan.
Sorry to hear that Allan hope you get better pdq
