Re: more weather sites
Thanks Mick,
that waverider site could be very useful http://wavenet.cefas.co.uk/Map?ZoomTo=-3.1957%2C53.8955
We are lucky to have two buoys near Morecambe Bay. Has anyone on here been up to either of them? It would be interesting to have a look at it.

Re: more weather sites
Ian's been VERY close to one. i seem to remember him and John had a swordfight with it.
I passed one on a direct route from Fleetwood to half way shoal last year, they look like little spucknicks with whip aerials

Re: more weather sites
WARNING don't pass too close to one Ian and I got tethered to one by our prop getting caught up in some fishing net trailing from it. It took the lifeboat to cut us free. We could not get near the stern of our boat because the aerial was trying to spear us due to the swell and fast running tide. The main lifeboat came out to us in the middle of Morecambe bay but they could not get near to our stern so they sent for the inshore inflatable who's crew eventually managed to cut us free with a long handled blade that looked like a medieval battle spike provided by the big lifeboat but it was very dangerous for them due to the aerial whipping around and the buoy crashing into the back of our boat. When we were released the ball of fishing net around our prop limited our helm so the lifeboat towed us back into Fleetwood marina where we managed to remove the fishing net and returned to Glasson the next day.

Wouldn't it be boring if the trip to Piel was straight there on a flat sea
