Reflecting on the sailing we've had this year, the wettest year for a very long time, our events have all been superb with good winds and no real rain to deter attendance. Even the light forecasts have turned out to produce some reasonable breezes with the only disappointment being the Inlands Day 2 being flat calm.

The highlight of the season was undoubtedly the Nationals at Highcliffe with strong breezes and those rollers just big enough to get some excellent surfing - and the grin factor to go with it.

Looking forward to some winter sailing and the 2013 season, which will hopefully produce more grin factor sailing.

Come and join us in 2013 - and some winter events.
