Good resolution where as http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Bough+Beech&ll=51.210379,0.135098&spn=0.02753,0.077591&t=k - Bough Beech is not so good. Some of these aerial photo's are a bit old. At Wilsonian there is no club extension so its between 5 and 10 years out of date. I notice there is a Vortex in the dinghy park so that probably means less than 10 years. Great all the same - if you work your way down the river you can pick out all the mud banks - its better than a chart. |

Google maps / satellite images for all UK sailing and yacht clubs can be found on our http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/clubfinder.php3 - Sailing Club pages . Go to the page for the club you want to view, and click on the map icon. It is then possible to toggle between a map, satellite view or a combination of the two. Why not save the url to add to your club's web site or create your own personalised maps for any location. ------------- http://www.noblemarine.co.uk" rel="nofollow - Boat Insurance from Noble Marine http://www.facebook.com/noblemarine" rel="nofollow - Noble Marine on Facebook . |

Dorchester Sailing Club was there http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/clubs/name/Dorchester-Sailing-Club/ - http://www.noblemarine.co.uk/clubs/name/Dorchester-Sailing-C lub/ , but may have been listed in the wrong region. I have amended this and also taken the opportunity to update some of the information held. If you spot any details that are incorrect, please let me know. We are missing a photo of the clubhouse. Perhaps you could get a piccie sent to us, next time you're there. ------------- http://www.noblemarine.co.uk" rel="nofollow - Boat Insurance from Noble Marine http://www.facebook.com/noblemarine" rel="nofollow - Noble Marine on Facebook . |
