Just one week to go before the second Gul Golden Dolphin event of the year, and the forecast is looking gorgeous!

See the HISC website for the NOR, the key points being:

  • Entry £50
  • Registration from 09:00 on 23rd April
  • Four-race series
  • The warning signal for the first race on 23 April is scheduled to be at 13:00.
  • On the last day no warning signal will be made after 15:00.
Gul Watersports is providing virtual vouchers in the Gold, Silver & Bronze fleets.

We're sharing with the Osprey fleet who we had a successful event with at Poole YC last year (to be repeated next month!), and the Contenders who we're having a combined Nationals with. It's going to be a fun weekend and we hope to see you there!
