There are only two weeks to go to West Riding SC's Spring Bank Regatta, with a busy schedule of races at ridiculously low entry fees over the weekend 25/26th May.

The racing starts 11am on the Saturday for Lasers, with the first three races counting towards this year's Northern Laser Grand Prix series, the event having been rescheduled due to lack of wind earlier in the year.

The first race for the Solo and Handicap fleets is at 2pm.

Solos attending this weekend's Solo Northern Travellers event at WRSC are invited to leave their boats in the secure compound to avoid a double journey.

As usual there will be free camping, with the club and bar open from Friday evening. Reasonably priced food will be available from Saturday lunchtime to Sunday teatime.

Entry Fees:

  • Laser Northern Grand Prix £7 for 3 races
  • Spring Bank Regatta £10 single handers (only an extra £3 for Laser GP competitors)
  • £15 double handers
Programme:

Saturday 25th May

  • 11am first of 2 races for Laser Northern GP
  • 2pm 3rd Laser Northern Grand Prix race
  • 2pm first two races for Spring Bank Regatta (Lasers, Solos, Handicap)
Sunday 26th May
  • 11am races 3, 4 and 5 for Spring Bank Regatta
