It has been a long standing tradition at Weir Wood SC to hold an end of season regatta. This year for the first time it has been decided to make it an open event and Weir Wood are hopeful of attracting a large turnout.

The event takes place on Sunday 28th October and is open to all mono-hull dinghies with a recognised PY number. There will be two handicap races followed by a pursuit race.

Weir Wood are no strangers to hosting major events and this is an excellent opportunity to sail in the heart of Ashdown Forest on the finest stretch of inland water in Sussex. For more information please contact
