2022 is shaping up as a strong one for the UK D-One fleet with an open event calendar comprising an exciting mix of inland, sea and foreign venues.

The UK circuit kicks off in early April at Oxford Sailing Club before moving on to Burghfield Sailing Club in late April. The National Championship will return to the heart of UK D-One sailing at Lymington Town Sailing Club in July. For the Inland Championship, the Class heads north to Leigh and Lowton Sailing Club in September. The ever popular, Warsash Sailing Club will again bookend the season in October.

A UK circuit travellers series will include the Nationals, Inlands plus one other open event.

For those wishing to travel further afield, the European circuit includes the Gold Cup at Gravedona, Lake Como, Italy in May with the European Championship at Lake Balaton Hungary in September.

More details of the events can be found on our website www.d-oneassociation.org. Other events may be added as they are confirmed. If anyone would like to add an event, please let us know.

There is plenty to prepare for as we look forward to welcoming the back the travelling fleet for some great competition at fantastic venues.
