On the 24th and 25th of September the Lightning 368 fleet will make their way to the reservoir venue of Chasewater for a weekend of tight and competitive racing for the Noble Marine Lightning 368 National Championship.

The Chase Sailing Club is a great central location for all visitors, set in the beautiful surroundings of Chasewater country park boasting a 900-hectare reservoir which will offer some very exciting, tight racing.

With camping on-site (motorhomes & tents) and plenty to do in the surrounding area why not bring the family along too!

This will be the first national championships that the club has held for many years, and the club and class are aiming to make this the biggest lightning 368 nationals to date, with food and evening entertainment, you don't even have to leave the club!

David Humphrey, Commodore of Chase Sailing Club says, "It is a great honour for the club to have been asked by the Lightning 368 association to hold their nationals at Chase. We really hope that we can give all who come along a great weekend both on & off the water."
