Anyone know where I can get a Dover to calais crossing forecast from???
I have got to get on a feckin boat this Friday night and I am dreading it??

Richard Askew

Dude - its nowt to worry about! Only an hour max - plus the forecast is for high pressure therefore it will be calm with minimal swell

Cheers

ARRON BIRD

I saw thunder storms on the weather forecast tonight to me that means WINDY!!!
I HATE feckin boats

Richard Askew

Big assed boats on the channel are fine. I once bobbed about in the Bay of Biscay for 27 hours in a Force 9 - everyone was calm til the staff said we couldnt make it back cos it was too rough and dangerous

Oooops maybe I should be quiet now

S.B.

Unless they close the port and you have to wait at sea like the other day...

johnfelstead

use the chunell then.

It's usually 90 minutes to cross the chanell by ferry.

Richard Askew

Look I told a little fib so it wouldnt seem to bad for him

Ok Ok its OVER an hour

ARRON BIRD

Cant going on a feckin bus to fish for monster carp and cats!!!!
When I was about 8 I went on a school trip from Felixstowe I think to Brittanny(cant spell) and it was a fecking force 12!!!
Made the BBC news the lot.
Nearly a major evacuation.....I am not jokin!!!
Puke everywhere!!!!
Since then(funny enough) I dont seem to like them very much.
Have done a night crossing in a force 8 and was ok tho!!!!
Love cars,bikes,planes and everything else that involves getting from A-B just hate FECKIN BOATS!!!!

Richard Askew

You sound like Mr T in the A-Team!!

"I aint gettin on no boat foool"

ARRON BIRD

Dam right fool!!!!
I`m gonna get myself pi55ed as a goddam fart!!!

j_p_h

LMAO at MR T.

Where abouts are you going fishing BTW ??

druddle

Arron - P&O from Dover are very good, they are big boats and even in a bit of bad weather they are quite stable. Have had nightmare trips on the Sally Line from Ramsgate tho !!!

I will be on the cross channel ferry later from Dover on my way to Assen !

Birdy,

Light S - SE winds on Friday and there won't be much swell about either. OK, chance of a storm at the moment, but they will be imports from France, hence convective jobbies so might get a bit gusty, but won't affect sea conditions.

You have to be careful about drinking loads on a ferry. I once travelled to Hook of Holland, (6 hours ?). And was sitting at the bar most of the way drinking. A few hours out, thought I had better sober up a bit so asked the barman for a coffee. Being Dutch with a good sense of humour he snapped back as fast as you like "Irish Coffee ?". "Oh, go on then" I say

Cheers

Ian

ARRON BIRD

Cheers Ian.
I knew I could count on you.
I`m going to Dream Lakes again in search of whackers!!!
So I have nothing to worry about then Ian.
Should be sweet.
Just have to build myself up for the return crossing

Try http://www.xcweather.co.uk

If you click on an arrow it gives you current wind and recent wind speed history. The ones in the channel even give wave height.

Also covers France.
