I know this is already in the events section, but with the lack of proper advertising in Qatar I thought I'd highlight this one. A great opportunity to dig out your long lenses and snap some 100mph+ boats :o)

Timings range from 11:00 a.m. till 5:00 p.m, near the Sheraton Hotel. For more information, check out www.qatarhappening.com. and http://www.qmsf.org/2009/index.html

I've seen these races the last couple of years from the Corniche, and it's normally worth popping down to watch, even if you can only make it out during your lunch break.

I was strolling along the corniche yesterday they had cordoned off the area towards the Sheraton end.. So thank Bladers now I know what it is..
