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.

This week, we preview the Southampton sports boat & RIB show which takes over Ocean Village, the annual Hamble Sea Scouts River Raid and the Dragon Boat festival in Portsmouth.

In the start of a new mini-series, The RYA’s Olympic manager Stephen Park and triple Olympic champion Ben Ainslie look ahead to this year’s Sail for Gold regatta.

Lymington sailor Hannah White drops by to talk about her new broadcasting career and summer sailing plans.

And our series looking ahead to the 80th anniversary of the Round the Island race continues, as we chat to one of the official photographers for the race about capturing β€˜that’ image.

We delve beneath the surface with the British Sub Aqua Club and find out what stand up paddle boarding is.

Plus the detailed weekend sailing forecast.

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