For November there will be one Fast Cruise which will be a "passage" cruise to Lymington and it will start at 1100 hrs on 17th November. This will be Fast Cruise 3. It will start in the mid eastern Solent, in the Browndown/Ryde Bank area. Both courses (long and short)  will be published on this page by lunchtime on Friday 16th November together with details of which boats should sail the long and short courses.

The appropriate course will be sent to registered boats by SMS text message and email Friday afternoon. It is also intended to broadcast the course, or any ammendments, on VHF CH 77 at 0900 and 1000 on Saturday 17th November. Fast Cruise Control will use the callsign "Juno".

Please text your boat name, FC 3, short (s) or long (l) course, start time (hhmmss), finish time (hhmmss) to 07778 362722 as soon as you have finished. Start and finish times are both required, NOT elapsed times. I will try and have the results available  by dinner on Saturday evening but I can only do this if all the times have been received.

If you retire from the Fast Cruise please DO NOT call on CH 77. Instead send a text with boat name and the message "rtd" to 07778 362722.

Berths have been arranged at Berthon Marina, Lymington. Please contact them on VHF CH 80 when you enter the river to be assigned your berth.
