Last minute entries going wild for International Paint Poole Regatta

by Charlotte Bulloch 26 May 2016 17:14 BST 28-30 May 2016

With just one day to go until the start of the International Paint Poole Regatta, last minute entries are going wild with one of the latest coming from world renowned yachtsman, Mike Golding, who is one of the few yachtsmen to have raced round the world non-stop in both directions. Mike will be sailing a Diam 24 in the Regatta, the chosen trimaran for the next four years of the Tour de Voile.

The forecast for the weekend looks promising and combined with the fantastic sailing conditions of Poole, a packed social programme and free beer from Hall and Woodhouse, the event looks set to be a great success for the organisers and competitors alike.
