The Helsingør Sailing Club is pleased to announce that the registration and entry process for the 2023 ORC DH European Championship is now open.

The event will take place from 10-17 June 2023 and is being held under the authority of the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC), the Danish Sailing Association along with Helsingør Sailing Club.

The venue is located at Helsingør Marina in the beautiful town of Helsingør with the Unesco Heritage Kronborg Castle as the closest neighbor. The club has existed for almost 90 years, currently has more than 500 members, and has an ambition of further developing the club with dedicated activities in the areas of a youth sailing, a general Sailing School and sailing activities focused on both women and aging sailors.

Since 1947 Helsingør Sailing Club has hosted the Sjælland Rundt Race. While starting small just after World War II, the race grew to more than 2000 boats in the early eighties where every Danish sailor wanted to try out what has been known locally as the "Marathon of the Sea."

The race is still developing and this year will host activities stretching over a full week that include One-Design J70 racing, the traditional Sjælland Rundt Race and the ORC DH European Championship.

The schedule for the ORC DH European Championship is as follows:

The ORC DH European Championship is open to any boat with a valid ORC DH International certificate with a 2022 APH value of between 420.0 to 630.0 s/NM - this will be adjusted for 2023 certificates. 2023 European ORC DH Champion titles and top three awards will be given in three classes, with CDL limits establishing these classes given final definition once the 2023 ORC VPP is finalized. Top three all-amateur Corinthian prizes will also be awarded in each class.

All information regarding course and other details is given in the Notice of Race, available at the event's documents page on Manage2Sail.

Other information is on the event's website at sjaellandrundt.dk/orc-dh.
