The RYA has announced that Suzuki will be the new title sponsor of the RYA Dinghy Show, the only exhibition in the world dedicated exclusively to dinghy sailing.
After many years of exhibiting at and supporting the show, Suzuki has chosen to become title sponsor for the next four years as part of its on-going commitment to getting people out on the water and involved in boating.
Gareth Lumsdaine, Sales & Marketing Manager for Suzuki GB's Marine & ATV Divisions said: "We are absolutely delighted to extend our relationship with the RYA by becoming title sponsor of the Dinghy Show. It is a fantastic show and one that Suzuki has enjoyed a presence at for some years now. It gives us an excellent platform from which to promote Suzuki's versatile four stroke outboards as the range includes models that are ideal for auxiliary engines, chase or support craft and of course safety boats."

It's also a great place for anyone who has never tried dinghy sailing before to come along and get all the information they need about getting started including the boats, the kit and much, much more.
Jon White, RYA Sport Development Manager commented: "We are really excited that Suzuki is sponsoring the show for the next four years. We are confident that with their support the show will become bigger and better than ever."
