B) CANCELLED PASSAGE RACE  CRUISE IN COMPANY AND SOUTH COAST MEET UP THIS SATURDAY.

Following on from a great 50th Anniversary Nationals last year, it would be great to see as many Contessa 26’s back on the water for the 2017 Nationals hosted by the Royal Southern Yacht Club. The nationals will be on the 9th and 10th September and yet again, it promises to be another competitive and social event.

Below is a link to the Notice of Race and Entry Forms on the Royal Southern Yacht Club website which gives full details of the Weekend’s Racing and Social Functions;

The entry fee is £45.00 per boat for entries received before 1200hrs 9 August 2017 and £50.00 thereafter. No entries will be taken after 1200hrs Saturday 2 September.  Full details can be found in the NoR.

As per usual, we have three Trophies are up for grabs:

All of the events are open to all Contessa 26’s, please feel free to invite any owners you may know or meet and please forward this email to them.
We would ask that you let the Racing Captain know of your intentions for our two Events, this allows us to gain a rough idea of numbers. Please email racing_captain@contessa26.net.
