More than half of the places are filled so please make your entry as soon as possible and we look forward to seeing you at the Club in September" commented Royal Southern Rear Commodore Sailing Paul Ward. "There is no doubt that the fabulous prizes are making the Land Union September Regatta extremely popular."

Black Group will have tight Solent courses around fixed and laid marks and will be designated for IRC Classes, the HP30 Class and one design keelboats including J/111 and Cape 31. White Group will race on a separate laid windward leeward course with short sharp action for the J/70 and SB20 Sportsboats.

After the first day of racing, sailors return to find Den's Deck at the Royal Southern Clubhouse transformed into Oktoberfest with complimentary German Beer and Sausage supper.

I am looking forward to racing my J/70 sportsboat in a super competitive fleet and we will be there for the party afterwards looking forward to seeing all of our sailing friends." commented CEO Land Union, Lutz Strangemann.

After racing on the final day of the Land Union September, the class winners for the Royal Southern Summer Series will be announced. The occasion will also be marked by the awarding of two of the best prizes at any Solent regatta.
