If only I weren't so far away, Brian. As you saw earlier in the summer, we sorely lack a decent sailing water down here at the moment- things may improve next year. Good luck with your new venture though.

Hi Brian, plenty of old gravel pits between Ringwood & Fordingbridge (I was born & raised in Fordingbridge) I don't wish to split hairs but Ringwood is in Hampshire not Dorset…

Whereabouts is the potential lake??

Mark..

I'd be interested too. I weas at Poole today, the lake is looking goof but the club website is dated 2011. I read their website in the summer and the clkub sounded in poor health. Im in salisbury so its a fair haul, Ringwood would be better.

I do sail at Blashford, Im a member of the Spinnaker club there, and thats nice but of course its full of bigger boats!

A Ringwood club would get my support.

Hi mike Radipole lake was good in weymouth but dont know what it is like now .Up this neck of the woods the best lake i have found is just outside barry and is wonderful and clean fed by a small stream on a down side it does get a wee bit chopy being a stones throw from the bristol channel .
