All boats are on/at Poole Quay today, all Marathon boats will be in Dolphin Quay overnight, some boats are being launched at Lake Yard tomorrow, others are using the slip at the RMYC on Sandbanks.

Totally agree a fantastic showing from all the teams, not been this many boats since the 80's, well done to the organisers you've done Annie Beakhust proud


Although theirs never a dead cert in offshore does the B28 look odds on favourite for the flag in the basic race ... bumpy or rough

Hopefully I can get down the quay later to see the BananaShak and the rest of the fleet but they have strong competition down their today with lots going on .......


From Poole tourism

A day full of fun whilst celebrating Poole's maritime history and raising money for Poole Hospital Charity and Lewis Manning Hospice.*
The day starts at midday with the Parade of Pirates through the old town and along the quay with prizes for the best fancy dress. Schools, clubs, pubs and all organisations welcome to join in!
Living History demonstrations including cannon firing, Viking, Militia and GI re-enactments.
Tug o' war competition - teams of six from businesses, clubs and any organisations welcome to test your muscle! Live bands - Lady Winwoods Maggots, Alibi, The Dolmen, The Bilge Rats, Jezebel, The Dorset Wrecks, The Black Sheep and lots of Sea Shanties.
Belly dancers, Morris Dancing, Pirate-Zumba, baton twirlers, Street dancing troops and Samba Panashe. Round the Island Gig Race with gig's from the across the South Coast taking part.
Street entertainment, children's rides, lots of competitions and prizes
Poole Afloat - on and off the water try your hand at various water sports and see the power boats.
Finish the day off and stay for the Pirate Fireworks at 10pm!
An awesome day for all the family and your friends so make sure you don't miss out on the fun and put the date 18th June in your diary now!
If you would like to join in the celebrations by taking part in the tug o' war or Parade of Pirates as an individual or organisation please contact the Pirates via facebook or email
