It's been quite a build-up, but there's now only a couple of days to go. The Cherub fleet is looking forward to a spectacular Nationals being held over the August Bank Holiday weekend (Sunday to Wednesday). There's a record number of pre-entries, rumours abound that there may be some fully foiling, and the weather forecast is looking peachy.

Some boats have already started arriving, making the most of Babbacombe's warm hospitality. Watch this space for reports of the fun on and off the water.
