by Stephen Cockerill 10 Dec 2013 14:29 GMT 14 December 2013

It's never too late to enter a National Championships in 2013. The rescheduled Rooster 8.1 Class National Championships will be hosted by Weir Wood Sailing Club on Saturday 14th December.

First Start at 10:30 with no start after 14:00 the Notice of Race can be found here. So you would get just over three hours of non-stop racing and a free lunch for just £15 entry - it should be the best Christmas bargain on offer this weekend.

The Rooster 8.1 class is strong at Weir Wood and they welcome 'all comers' to who own a Laser to join in with the National Championships. To this end, rig hire will be just £15 from Rooster Sailing. Class membership is free! Rooster Sailing are providing the prizes.

So if you are bored by Christmas shopping and fancy a frenetic 3 hours of non-stop racing at Weir Wood Sailing Club, book your rig hire from Rooster here.

Amazingly the weather is looking great for sailors of all sizes!
