The Ovington Inlands are once again returning to Grafham Water SC. Ovington Classes invited this year are the 29er, 49er, Musto Skiff, and for the first time the Flying Fifteen and Solution.

We are going to have the new Ovington ‘Aura’ on display at Grafham on the Saturday along with designer Peter Hobson who will be on hand to discuss his design ideas and answer any questions.

The 29er class are anticipating large numbers - currently in a period of rapid growth having had a record turnout of boats last weekend at Northampton SC. 29er sailors need to enter online before the event.

Generous prizes have been provided for the event by Ovington Boats, Harken and Orange Mountain Bikes, these will be awarded by Ovington MD, 2011 Flying 15 World Champion.

Saturday night entertainment once again features the ‘Dirty Purples’ playing live and a Firework display.

Pre-entry is encouraged, but entry is open right up to day, camping/motorhome spaces are available by advanced booking direct with the club. The Notice of Race is published and available here.

We can offer free delivery on all spares ordered before lunchtime on Thursday 3 November, please phone the office on 0191 2576011 to place your order.
