Welcome! We'll be adding lots of new blogs here soon. Please note that there are a number of categories to choose from. This is the first blog for 2012 Olympics... and there is some serious news out of Perth 2011... about Ben Ainslie.

Ben Ainslie’s campaign for a sixth Finn World Championship title came to an end on Saturday (10 December) after he was disqualified for both of the day’s two races after an incident with a media boat driver on his course.

Ainslie’s progress was impeded by the boat on the final downwind leg of race nine of the World Championship series in Perth, and after the race finish he boarded the media boat to voice his unhappiness at the boat driver’s actions.
