Crowds gathered on Weymouth Beach to watch the handover of the Olympic flame to London on Sunday 24 August. The celebrations in Weymouth which included dragon racing and a flag relay, were shown across the globe as part of the television broadcast of the closing ceremony. Sue Barker is shown on the large screen with a WSC Feva on the beach.
Yachts from all the Weymouth Clubs sailed into the Bay dressed overall to add colour to the day.
