With 120 entries received already, the 2023 OK World Championship - which is being hosted by Lyme Regis Sailing Club from 22 to 30 June - is looking like it's going to be a truly world class event, with entries from across Europe and Australasia. As might be expected there's a very strong GB contingent!

LRSC have now confirmed the charges for launching and use of club premises in the days running up to the main event. The club have agreed arrangements with the Harbour Master which allows any OK Worlds entrant to launch their boat for either £6 per day or £20 for unlimited launches prior to Thursday 22nd June and the Club Secretary will collect this fee on behalf of the Harbour Authority.

As the club has no space to accommodate the storage of dinghies overnight for visitors ahead of the event, this will need to be arranged with the Harbour Master and will be dependent on what space is available at the time. Visitors are also able to make use of the club facilities for £5 per day, payable in cash at the club bar.

Those who have entered and are yet to pay are reminded that the payment deadline is 23:59 on 28 April and our Treasurer is looking forward to receiving your money. If you are intending to come and compete but have not yet completed your online entry please remember that entries close on 28 April at 23:59.

The event website can be found at 2023.okworlds.org
