On the subject of sea sailing and great venues, the Spinnaker 12's are planning to go to Swanage regatta on 1st and 2nd August. Great sailing, well organised and a really friendly bunch at Swanage Sailing Club. We all plan to camp locally where we can light fires, barbeque and relax away from the chavs normally in abundance at this time of year. Cheap weekend and lots of sailing. If enough 12's attend we will get own start and own cup.
im in weymouth only just along the way so might be able to make this one. assuming i get my boat put back together before then, not having a lot of luck making the time so far!
