The open meeting season at West Riding Sailing Club is in full swing with successful events already completed for the 2000, Solo and Laser fleets. The club now looks forward to welcoming the heavy weights, for the forthcoming BFA Northern Championship on the weekend of the 13th and 14th May.

With 12 entries confirmed so far, West Riding Sailing Club are hoping to host one of the largest gathering of Finns, in the North of England in recent years. It would be fantastic to get a few more on the water.

Full details are available on the club web site - www.wrsc.org - events page. 7 races are scheduled from 12.00 on Saturday with free on site camping available from Friday evening. Lunch is included on both days, the bar will be open and prizes will be awarded to the top three. What's not to like!
