It is a busy time in the Merlin Rocket world. As well as recently opening their Aspire 2019 Championship website and entry (www.merlinrocketchamps.com), 2018 Merlin National Champion, Christian Birrell, has also announced details of this year's Merlin Rocket Training weekend.

The event will be hosted at the 2012 Olympics venue, Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy over the weekend 20th/21st April. It will be specifically designed to improve your boat speed and setup, racing tactics and boat handling. Christian will be ably assisted by Merlin maestro Jon Turner with further coaching staff to be added in the coming weeks.

All Merlin Rocket sailors are welcome regardless of their level of experience. Christian will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. His one plea is: "Please sign up as early as possible to allow us to plan the weekend properly!"
