The 2024 Nationals will take place at the Royal Southern Yacht Club, with racing from Thursday July 4th to Sunday 7th. Race Officer Stuart Childerley has been set the challenge of controlling the impressive line-up of competitors.

Several ex-national champions, including Olympic bronze medallist Ossie Stuart sailing with gold medallist, Mike McIntyre. Tom Hewitson & Russell Peters will all be battling for the title, in the Solent. The venue is the perfect location for the top flight racing & a fabulous social programme.

The Zhik Southern Area Championship is the 'warm-up regatta' at Hayling Island Sailing Club on June 29/30. Ski rental company White Storm is again supporting the event by presenting a trophy.
