Shall we enter a crew for this Dee?  

[Dee]

I'm up for it ...why not ;)))

[AndiDavies]

Confused.... This is what's on my invoice
"5 Miles From Home 2022 - Alternative Challenge B: dragonboats, ocean-sliding seat boats, outriggers - Alternative Challenge B: dragonboats, ocean-sliding seat boats, outriggers £10.00
Andi Davies"

Ahhh... SUP & canoes are the alternative £5.00 (or walking)

[Julia]

That must be it, walking on water £5 🤔👍 can only do this midweek as in Lymington at weekend.  Any others to make up quad?

[Elaine Parkin]

If there was a chance of doing it on Thursday 21st I'd like to join a quad!! Otherwise late afternoon Wednesday?? (both good high tides.)

[Rhonda Lawrence]

I'd like to join you for the challenge but I'm just at the tail end of recovering from covid and won't be able to start coming down until next week

What's the format of the challenge, would I need more hours of coastal rowing under my belt first?

Great, thanks, I'll get signed up

[Julia]

Hi Dee,  I've put an entry in for 1 quad, can be ladies or mixed depending on sign up.  Julia

[Dee]

Thank you Julia 😊

[Julia]

Rhonda can do Wednesday or Thursday for this.  Shall we set up a what's app group so people can decide on day rather than messaging here?  J

[AndiDavies]

Can't see what the weather is like for next week, but I'm thinking Wednesday 20th, meeting at 1:30pm, to be afloat 2pm. HT 2:54pm (4.2m)
