Any Hanse owners sailing on the south coast over the easter holiday period, we plan to be heading to Weymouth or Portland for a few days. Be good to see another Hanse Burgee, I've yet to see another Burgee in action and I'm looking forward to it! ------------- Steve. Hanse 341 Echo of Wight, .

Sadly I will be sailing around north wales over Easter weekend. Also looing for a Hanse Burgee. What we need are more sold. Perhaps Hanse UK should put one on each boat sold.  Dave PS I still have a dozen left so new members please contact me. ------------- Hanse 301, tiller steering, Volvo 2010 (10hp)

Hi!
If you sail to Portland Marina, then you must eat at "The Boat That Rocked", the Thai mussels are amazing!

Hi Currently out of Portland and holed up in Worbarrow for the evening. Feel free to give me a shout MMSI 235063342 when we wake in the morning. Probably heading up to Swanage to see if the dolphins are out then back to Weymouth alongside the quay for the night and finally over to portland Sunday morning. And YES a burgee flying right at the moment!! ------------- Peter Russell Hanse 370 hull 499 "Outnumbered" http://outnumbered.the-russells.net" rel="nofollow - http://outnumbered.the-russells.net |

 Hi Steve. yes my Burgee is flying and I am in the same marina as you are! J30. I have been out sailing most of last week and I saw you out and about, heading towards southampton water or there abouts. However I am at home now for the easter weekend. I am heading out of the marina next Sat 30th April about 10:00am and heading for the west coast of scotland via weymouth etc. Hope to see you around.

Well after leaving Barmouth, flying the burgee all weekend up and down the mid welsh coast, was thirsty work in the unusually hot April sunshine. Picture of the burgee flying...........  Does anybody remember temperatures like this so early in the year? ------------- Hanse 301, tiller steering, Volvo 2010 (10hp)

Our first trip of the season was over Easter. A Medway Yacht Club cruise to London's West India Docks at Canary Wharf about 8 hours away. Had to use engine going there, but the return journey was an exciting sail. Unfortunately, no other MyHanse burgees.
