One of the biggest regattas in the south's sailing calendar is on this weekend.

The biennial gathering has became a regular fixture to celebrate the millennium, but it's roots go back to early Victorian times. And this year sailors will be competing for the historic Canford Cup.

The regatta is run by the combined clubs in Poole harbour, as president Andrew Pearce explained to 大象传媒 Radio Solent's Neil Sackley.
