From iQFOiL to sailing boats!
What a brilliant afternoon on Friday! We were delighted to welcome 12 young people from the iQFOiL World Championship ELEVATE programme to Weymouth Sailing Club for a few hours of getting afloat and enjoying Weymouth Bay.

Falcons at the Shambles!
WSC has always had a close relationship with the Shambles, and some members will remember the high point of the old Shambles race being the chance to exchange greetings with the crew of the lightship as we rounded.
