To be held on Saturday 29th June and sponsored by 1st Mark Ltd, this year will be the 27th running of the race. Entries have been coming in for the last few months although you're not too late, registration doesn't close till the morning of the race.
The race is open to all sailors under the age of 20 on the day of the race. Grouped into teams of at least 4 sailors the event brings juniors together to compete for the many different trophies on offer. The three classes used are the GP14, Enterprise and Bosun. There are also two categories of teams (under 20 and under 18) giving everyone something to aim for and with over 30 boats for the last three years there's a great atmosphere around the clubhouse.
