Sailing Regattas

Yacht racing in the solentAs I mentioned on the Racing Home page, we do get involved in public regattas, such as the Round the |sland Race and Cowes week, however our forte is organising our own!  We do this for charities as fund-raising events, and we organise in-house regattas for .

Details of the above can be found in our charity and corporate sections by following the links.

 

In addition to these we are launching our own regatta this September.

We have now taken over three thousand people out onto the water and given them a fantastic time and we are going to take all that experience and organise a weekend of great racing and huge fun ashore.  One of the hallmarks of our regattas is that complete beginners race alongside those with a little more experience.  There are no 'experts' ( apart from the skippers ) to intimidate you, so whilst the racing is close and exciting, there is none of the usual arrogant puffing and shouting  that so often features in other regattas.  No-one takes it too seriously, in fact no-one is allowed to take it, or themselves for that matter,, too seriously!

We are planning the event for the weekend of the 26/27 September 2009.

If you are interested in being part of what will certainly be a brilliant regatta, go to the contact page and drop me a line.
