It is now confirmed that the Dehler regatta in 2008 will be run as part of Poole Regatta during the second May Bank Holiday. It is planned that we are all berthed at the marina at Parkstone. I will email details very shortly but in the meantime please email me if you are interested in attending so that we can have an idea of the number of berths we will need.

There is now a link to the entry form here.
