Update - January 10 - Max from over Bursledon Blog comes up with the place:
"Looks like Christchurch, the row of beach huts by Hengisbury Head. Sailing is inside Christchurch harbour and you can see view of the open sea in Christchurch Bay with the Isle of Wight in the distance.More about Christchurch from Max's blog.
Patrick Hay chimes in with a comment and correctly identifies the dinghy as the Bobbin class, length 2.7 meters, beam 1.27 meters, manufactured by Pearson Brothers of England in the 1970's.
More information on the Bobbin can be found over here.
All in all, a very nice piece of both quadcopter and land-based videography.

Thanks Max! I figured you would be the one who might know. Now about that dinghy class?
Bobbin?
By jiggity Patrick, that's the one. Looked at some online images and this dinghy is indeed a Bobbin, mfg. by Pearson Bros. in the 1970's. More details on the Bobbin over at this bloke's blog post.
I have a Bobbin dinghy but need to know how to rig the mainsheet as there are bits missing, traveller over the rudder, then a simple diagram perhaps to show rig connection to the boom, there is a pulley wheel attached to the end of the boom...........many thanks
