Paula and I went to Smoking Lobster in Cowes last night. Stayed over and sailed back this morning.

Nothing really out there until I spotted the Daring class Destroyer "Duncan" on the AIS with tugs fore and aft.....

Green AIS objects mean that I am in no danger of colliding...

So I altered course, and upped the speed, red AIS objects mean there is a danger of collision...

Once I got close enough, I backed off. I've had one to many run ins with the military police :(as @goosehd and @neph93 will testify to)-)

The a bloody cross channel ferry came and joined in the fun (at which point one of the police launched decided it had bigger fish to fry)

on the way back from the mainland managed to sneak on the bridge of the st claire and saw this navel vessel as well.

[Giles]

How did you manage that ?

[gazza61]

@Giles I sold a motorbike to a member of the crew.

[Giles]

Well done indeed.....

@Giles A lot nicer than the one I was on.

[Giles]

If the Dale falls through, can I suggest Jenny? She's a 1933 motor yacht built by W.G. McBryde in Helensburgh, currently available on eBay for a quid. The restoration might cost a wee bit more.
