Polly Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 I think we all need something to look forward to in these times. My hope is to fulfil a long held wish and hire White Moth for a weekend. I really hope this can happen. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshman Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 WYCCT, will, like many small business's with volunteers, find it hard in the current environment to offer sailings. I am not convinced that they will be offering many sailings this year, unless it is towards the very end of the season. I fear some current restrictions could well remain for larger groupings - I hope I am wrong though!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyMorgan Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Good luck, Polly. We had her for one of my daughter's wedding, brilliant. Definitely the way to travel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Hope it happens for you, no reason why it shouldn't. We demand a write up with plenty of photo's in the normal manner I've often toyed with the idea of hiring one of the wherries for a couple of days during our Lads week so I can get all 24 crew members onboard for a sail then have a games night onboard. Trouble is they seem to stop their season prior to us being afloat in October Griff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is they seem to stop their season prior to us being afloat in October Griff I think you would need 2 Griff as each wherry yacht can only carry 12 passengers. I would go for Norada and White Moth. I think the trading wherries carry more. I say Norada (having sailed on all three wherry yachts + one pleasure) because her shorter loa. Nessesitated a non traditional rig and the inclusion of a boom certainly gives her better sailing qualities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polly Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 A write up, certainly, a BBQ with whoever is afloat by then, hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshman Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Nope - 12 is the maximum number of passengers I am afraid under any circumstances! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Have you asked? Yep ages ago - Albion it was. No harm in asking again. 12 would be fine as I could split the day between crews. I'd really like to have Albion overnight so the crews could spend a social evening onboard her, sort of a table top games night. We could bring our own nibbles / drinks / chairs and the like. Get 'B.A' and t Jewels berthed up close by, even rafted up overnight would do. Polly - Seem to be hijacking your thread - Many apologies xx Griff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polly Posted February 18, 2021 Author Share Posted February 18, 2021 Not a problem Griff. I think planning for some positive experience is good for us. Lads week (once you all recover) is no doubt one such time. 😊 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
