That might explain it, but still it wouldn't be that hard to have a few lines on the homepage... I wonder if they ever run an open meeting...

Naseby SC has been closed for about 5 years, see the empty dinghy park!

Hollowell SC, the marker is on the building site next door and not on the club.

Royal Findhorn YC, the marker is on the holiday cottages next to the club

Right, I've now completed another round of updates.

Thankyou SO MUCH to the people who have helped out with corrections. We really appreciate it.

Can I make a plea once more if there are any Irish sailing club members out there, to get in touch?

 "Members Only" open meeting...

Seriously, if this has anything to do with a big corporation like the BBC, they could find someone to design the home page a bit better. Not even hosted on the BBC servers...

Few more amends

Royal Torbay YC -  50°27'29.45"N       3°31'25.09"W

Bough Beech -  51°12'31.39"N         0° 8'32.51"E

Pevensey Bay -  50°48'6.59"N        0°20'25.20"E

Emsworth SC -  50°50'32.14"N        0°56'23.23"W

Emsworth Slipper SC -  50°50'39.80"N     0°56'16.76"W   (not 100% certain on that one but it's more there then where it is currently..)

Datchet Water SC  -  51°29'8.56"N     0°32'12.93"W  (surprised that one wasn't right)

Wraysbury Lake -   51°27'42.83"N      0°33'25.37"W

Weir Wood -  51° 5'51.22"N       0° 0'29.21"E

Bough Beech -   51°12'31.42"N      0° 8'32.51"E

Castle Cove SC -  50°35'35.39"N       2°27'53.29"W


Amazing how out of date the coverage of WPNSA is on google earth..ok so there's a lot of development been going on but that aerial shot looks 2-3 years old.

And staying in that general neck of the woods I think the Royal Dorset YC is wrong..iirc it's much more in town on the quayside along from Rendezvous..but I could be mistaken...

A massive thanks once more to 'Laser4000' for sterling service on the lat/long front. Cheers!
