The 420 class start their programme of autumn and winter events next weekend, with their Autumn Championships at Rutland Sailing Club.

Following on from a really great turnout at the National Championships at Hayling Island, the pre- event entry of 36 boats promises to provide a great weekend of racing for the class.

With a large number of new faces in the fleet, and a number of new partnerships formed from sailors within the fleet it's anyone's guess who will be at the front.

The next event will be the Winter Championships at WPNSA on 5 and 6 October, with the combined scores from the Autumn and Winter Championships being used to select the RYA National squad.
