Heading for the first mark

Occasionally when you look at the skyline from Calshot you see a whole sea full of boats. We tend to get a little blasé about it, but it really is a top location which lots of people spend small fortunes muscling in on. The reality of course is it's easy to get involved and a great way of staying fit, and in tune with nature. Not too many people playing on X Boxes at our sailing club for sure...!

“Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.” Kenneth Grahame, The Wind in the Willows
