Sailing on the Solent – I love it

Plenty of wind on the first day of a stag weekend on the Solent.  Putting reefs in early on in the day.  Then the benefit as we had some great sailing in sunny and windy weather.  Superb sailing on Parallel Blue and Lady V (Beneteau 40.7s)  followed by sailing in Osborne Bay before partying in…

Delighted to get this feedback from a recent Stag Group.  It was exceptionally windy – certainly the windiest Stag weekend I have done.  They were great fun and  coped well with the exciting trip from Hamble to Cowes on Saturday – we were all completely drenched!  Sunday was a complete contrast – warm, sunny, dry and perfect…

Had such fun teaching competent crew after lunch in Lulworth Cove.  We did dinghy practice first and that is always fun. What a beautiful place to be teaching/learning.  hard not to smile. Note the fantastic spread we had for lunch.
