Allen Brothers, the Essex based manufacturer of high performance sailing hardware is increasing its support for the 2016 Endeavour Trophy, the "Champion of Champions" event taking place at Royal Corinthian Yacht Club at Burnham on Crouch on 7,8,9th October.
Now celebrating its 60th Anniversary, Allen Brothers has a long history of supporting the event as its previous managing director and son of one of the founders, Kim Allen, was a key figure in organising the event.
The current MD, Liz Adams explained, "The Endeavour is both a major sailing and a major local event, so it is only right Allen plays a part in supporting and promoting it. It is an invitation only event and all competitors are either Olympians, UK national champions or World champions in their own right. There will be 28 crews in identical RS200s competing for overall honours and the ultimate winners can rightly consider themselves at the very top of UK sailing, so it is exactly the right setting for Allen."
