You will need some experience before people will trust you to crew their boats so get your face known at your club and then people are more likely to ask you to crew for them .................I get asked a lot by annoyed Helm's wishing their crew was more reliable

Just as well he is not here to read that or you would need to widen the doors. Or are you after some free beer?

There's a crew list on the HISC web site: didn't you say you where near the IOW?

Plenty of local clubs with people looking for crews!

Thats not really banter, is it? Sorry!

But I can't flirt with Sailor girl, cos I'm too old, and I've not got upset with Brian, so I'm just left with pointless rambling.

100, hurrah! I'm a posting King!
