Geocache Description:


This is one of a series of puzzle caches created to celebrate the 2012 Olympic Games Sailing events to be held in Weymouth Bay.

The series consists of five rings of puzzle caches situated in Weymouth Bay and can be seen on the Geocaching.com map view.  Each ring is designated a separate colour (Black, Red, Yellow, Blue and Green) and has an associated bonus solved by collecting information from the caches within that ring.  Solving all five bonus puzzles will yield the coordinates of a final cache location where Gold, Silver and Bronze medals await the first three successful geocachers.  Most of the puzzles are designed to be solved at home and results can be checked using the associated geocheck.com link.

There are over 60 puzzles to solve so it is not a quick task to get to the end, but remember that all Olympians only reach their peak with hard work!

The cache is within five miles of the above location so please don't get your feet wet!
