Posted on behalf of John Coyle, P27 Harlequin

Harlequin invites 'midweekers' to enjoy a few days of leisurely sailing between the 9th and 14th of August. Starting at Newtown and ending in Cowes for those who intend to join the Round the Island exponents. The Solent and Isle of Purbeck will be the arena and the tempo geared to conditions. I shall devise a program once the long range forecast is to hand. Copies of the likely anchorages and 'shower stops' will be available at Newtown, or posted to those who ask by e-mail beforehand.
