The Blithfield Barrel starts this weekend on Sunday and continues on 3rd December, 14th January and finishes on the 11th February. The Merlins are usually the biggest fleet so pop along if you fancy a blast, it's 15quid a day or 40quid for the series.

Caroline Croft crewed by Matt Lullham-Robinson are holding the top spot after week 1, closely followed by Chris Gould piloting an Osprey. Next round this weekend might be a bit chilly but the Merlins are tuff stuff so will be out whatever.
