Cutty Sark, Southampton heritage & sailing around Great Britain

Record-breaking yachtsman Sir Robin Knox-Johnston with all aspects of life on the water.

The Solent is famous for its rich maritime heritage and the H2O Show covers all aspects of life on the water - leisure, business and sport. Whether you're a sailing professional or just like watching the boats go by on the Solent, the programme will have something to appeal to you.

Sir Robin Knox-Johnston and Shelley Jory-Leigh are together again this week.

They hear more about the relaunch of the world famous Cutty Sark.

They talk to a young man who's about to set off round Great Britain in aid of Sport Relief and the Ellen MacArthur Trust.

And they find out more about the threat to a tall piece of the Port of Southampton's heritage.

Also, our series previewing the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Pageant continues with a profile of "Wet Wheels" - the powerboat that gives people with disabilities the chance to get on the water.

And from the archives, HMS Southampton's acceptance ceremony.

The H2O Show is also available as a podcast and you can get news and features from the programme on Facebook and via Twitter.
