We hope you all enjoyed a warm and sunny weekend – with some wind in parts of the country too. As we reported on Friday, Jono Dunnett decided to kick off his ‘Windsurf Round Britain’ mission this weekend and set sail on Sunday.

The Start – Windsurf Round Britain

“On Sunday 7th June 2015, at just after ten am, Jono Dunnett left the beach, sailed past Clacton Pier and began a voyage of a lifetime. His journey around the mainland of Britain on a windsurfer will take up to three months and has never been done before without on-water support.

“The weather for the start was perfect for those that came to see him off.  He may have preferred a little more wind however. His planned destination for tonight is the exotic Southend on Sea. From there he hopes to hop across to the north coast of Kent, and turn the corner at Margate before next week´s forecast strong NE winds arrive.”
