In September 2009 Weymouth and Portland hosted the Skandia Sail for Gold Regatta held at the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy. This was not only a perfect opportunity for Weymouth and Portland to show itself of to the sailing world it was also the biggest Olympic and Paralympic classes regatta that Great Britain has seen.
This was a truly international event with competitors attending from over 40 countries and Weymouth and Portland for the first time truly got an idea of just how exciting the next three years are going to be in the run up to the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
