Sprint 15 National Championships at Pentewan Sands Sailing Club - Preview

by Bob Carter 22 Aug 2013 13:11 BST 25-27 August 2013

The Sprint 15s are holding their National Championships at Pentewan Sands Sailing Club on 25-27 August. There are 63 pre-entries and we expect excellent racing as usual. Further entries are welcome at the event.

The Notice of Race can be found here.

We have renamed our National Championship Trophy the 'Nick Dewhirst Shield' in memory of our chairman who died so suddenly less than a month ago.

After the three days of racing, over 30 of the helms are staying over for the rest of the week of fun events. This includes a go-kart grand prix with 22 pre-entries and then various sailing cruises along the Cornish coastline with lunch stops on the way.
