Last night, in grey and blustery conditions, 17 brave WSC yachts raced twice round NowhereIsland which is anchored off Bowleaze Cove. The picture shows Owaissa, winner of the cruiser class, rounding the island, which is a work of art, or something, made from arctic stone. Posh Totty was the first Squib and Yellow Wellie the first dinghy. Andy Young deserves a mention for the most inventive manoeuvre - sailing backwards in a 420 under spinnaker while towing his crew, Sam, on the end of the painter!
