Try using the 'Search' function for 'topsail', a lot of old posts pop up.

Hi David. This is great info. Thank you for replying. Having a ball getting to know the WB. Planning an exstended Summer trip, Bucklers Hard in the Solent to Brixhan rtn. Should be a big learning curve. Best wishes, Jill.

Bucklers Hard - great sailing around the Solent, Brixham - great sailing around Torbay.  But in between, rounding Portland Bill with the overfalls, no thank you.  We looked at doing it but decided it was a lot easier and safer trailering between the two areas.  Good slipways available at both ends.
