In our biggest nautical section ever we admire the work of those who share the challenge of the sea with others. We admire the tenacity of a man who has hosted a rib fest, despite the odds. And we meet a man who has mapped every ebb of the Solent. We meet the people who make the Island what it is: the new High Sheriff Peter Kingston and Christopher Bland, who also held the office. Both share their hopes for the young of today but also their fears. Then there are the people striving to make the Island a better place for locals and visitors. The standard of food and drink continues to rise, and in a new venture we begin our own no-holds-barred restaurant reviews. In our equestrian section we see how driving can benefit the disabled. In our guide to Country Life we walk among the bluebells. No wonder we all enjoy Island Life.
