Could not decide if Poole or Portland would get the besyt wind at the weekend so went to Poole as it is nearer.

Looks like the wind was better at Portland, but more importantly Bjorn Dunkerbeck was sailing there as part of the Weymouth Speed week.....how did I miss that





Is there wind on the way??

Digital SLR would be great, but even a cheap(ish) digital is a worthy investment. Go on and treat yourself!
