Where: RYA Stand A85, Tullett Prebon London Boat Show
When: Saturday 15 January
Time: 15.00

On Saturday 15 January at the Tullett Prebon London Boat Show the RYA will be sounding the starters’ hooter to commence countdown to the RYA Volvo Dinghy Show 2011.

There will be just 48 days until the doors open on the 60th Birthday of the Dinghy Show, held at Alexandra Palace, London over the weekend of 5 – 6 March and we are asking you to join the party on the RYA stand (A85) at the London Boat Show to raise a glass and start the clock ticking.

“We felt it would be a really nice idea to countdown to the 60th birthday of the show and where better to get the clock started than at the London Boat Show home of all things boating and filled with sailing enthusiasts”, explained Paul Bayliss, RYA Volvo Dinghy Show manager. “We’d like as many people as possible to come and get into the party spirit with us and start the countdown with a bang.”

The RYA Volvo Dinghy Show is the only show in the world dedicated to dinghy sailors and is packed to the rafters with dinghies of all classes and the clubs that sail them. It also boasts a whole host of talks and master-classes with the leading lights of the dinghy sailing world, so whether you’re looking to improve your sailing or are just getting started you’ll find just what you need.

There are also fabulous prizes to be won for you and your club, so make a date in your diary and visit www.dinghyshow.org.uk to find out more and book your tickets. We hope you can join us in London in January to get the party started!
