The Fastnet From The Purbeck
Today at noon the yachts that sail the Fastnet race left Cowes on the Isle of Wight and headed west. If the wind is right some of these yachts take a route very close to the cliffs at Durlston, on the south east corner of the Isle of Purbeck. A friend of ours confirmed the times and so we headed for the cliffs.
Spindrift 2 was the lead yacht and he came in nice and close, giving us a fine view of this 40m long monster.
