Back in May 2008 I fulfilled a long time ambition of mine which was to try my hand at sailing. I achieved this by enrolling on a Royal Yachting Association (RYA) Start Yachting training course run by a Company that was based in Portsmouth. The training event was held over a weekend and involved sailing in the Solent Hampshire and into the River Medina on the Isle of Wight. I took a Panasonic P5000 compact camera with me and this was one of the images I captured which shows the yacht I was on sailing into Portsmouth Harbour at the end of the course. I enjoyed the experience but never felt sufficiently driven to undertake any further training.
