Hi there,
Has anybody got any plans for the Around the Island Race this weekend? We're planning/hoping/unlikely to get Yarmouth (backup plan is Newton or Lymington) on Friday night and then head round to the Needles on Saturday to watch the yachties come round. Weather isn't looking too bad might be a good opportunity to get some good pictures of the Needles (I've never seen them from the water before).
From a motorboat perspective is it worth going to see or would we be better staying put? How well marshalled is the race - would a motorboat be allowed to 'tag' along if we wanted to follow them around the Island?
Thanks
