this first post will be adjusted as new information comes about

Update.... It seems most people are booking Red Funnel, departing 09.30 from Southampton and returning at 20.30 from East cowes

For those of getting the 09.30 sailing from Soton, there is a pre ferry ride meet at the Mayflower park just down the road from the ferry terminal. Meet there at 08.45.

Thats unusual didnt know they booked that far in advance....maybe try again later...or calling them...there's always room...(in my experience anyway!!)

[pixi]

Yeah, it is unusual. A couple of us tried to put that date into the website today and it didn't want to play.

No you don't need a pasport, infact if they find you are from off the island you're probably in trouble :P

[cheezemonkhai]

I have just phoned red funnel to see if we can get any group discount on the ferry fare and they are going to get back to me based on 10 cars if we can get a group discount.

One point that was raised was that the boats are 9am or 10am only not 9:30am, so which boat would be the preference and what time would we be looking at comming back at?

If somebody can let me know.

Depends how good the ale is in the pub friday night and wether we want to go back on the saturday night:rofl: :rofl: HTH

[cheezemonkhai]

Tis good ale

Not to mention the selection of pubs and good curry houses too.

[mdk1]

Don't mind what time in the morning. Not much later than 8pm for the return.

[pixi]

How about 9 am then? and where are the decent curry houses please

I went to an award winning one in Stratford the other weekend and it sure was lovely

[devonutopia]

9am makes sense. Meet at that car park overlooking the sea at about 8am.

[20VLIL]

That'll be Mayflower park me thinks:thumbup:
