Sorry to bother you all, but I wonder if anyone here has heard from David? Thing is, my boat was up and ready to go Friday with the engines serviced and a tank full (200 gallons) of diesel. David has been a bit down of late just recovering from a fairly serious operation. He asked me if he could get away for a bit on my boat (like sleeping on board) and natuarally as he has been a good friend to me I said yes, and told him where to find the keys etc.
Today it turns out, he apparently started up the boat and headed out across the bar (Eastern Solent) and was last seen passing Bembridge heading due South.
I have tried to ring him on his mobile but it just rings and rings. I had no idea he was actually going to drive the thing but he is very competant so I am not at all worried, but I'd just like to know he is safe. There is enough fuel aboard to get to France and I know he knows loads of people there, so, if anyone hears from him, would you please tell him to get in touch.....
Thanks,
Keith
