RS Aerocup: Barcelona Edition announced © RS Sailing

We are delighted to announce the addition of a new gem to the RS Aero international calendar and the birth of the RS Aerocup series!

The first edition of the Aerocup will be held from October 30th to November 1st 2015 in the iconic city of Barcelona, hosted by the Olympic sailing venue of 1992; Barcelona International Sailing Centre.

We will be laying on a great social schedule, giving you the opportunity to soak up some Spanish atmosphere with friends. You can expect a prestigious race committee and top of the range facilities in a fantastic setting. There will even be a coaching day before the event for all who fancy a little longer in the sun or just some extra tips.

Sixteen charter boats will be made available to International entrants outside of the UK. More details of this opportunity and an efficient UK boat transport deal will be released along with entry details in the near future.

For those that like to get organised early, take a look here for some accommodation ideas near the sailing centre and here for some of the touristy highlights to whet your appetite!

Save the date and watch this space. We will be in touch soon with more details and updates as they happen.
