The 42nd Hamble Winter Series is coming to a Solent near you in October and those who value a bargain have until September 8th to snap up an Early Bird entry. There will be racing every Sunday from 8th October to 3rd December, with one lay weekend on November 5th, to allow competitors to rack up some brownie points on bonfire night.

Entering the series now will gain entry to the Hamble IRC Autumn Championships at no extra cost, on the weekend of 14th & 15th October.

The winter series is a great time test your IRC rating, or get one if you haven't got one, as the RORC Rating Office are offering a 50% discount on ratings for the rest of the season. Go to: rorcrating.com to take advantage of this great offer.

We are anticipating running four IRC Classes as usual to cater for any size of yacht. Once again, there will be day prizes every Sunday from our Fabulous Day Sponsors, and of course cheesy chips and beer.
