This edition of the Solo interactive Magazine focuses on the recent Xalient Nation's Cup which took place at beautiful Bellano on Lake Como. This is a secret sailing mecca and I would recommend it to any class of dinghy if you like a constant 8-12 knots and 30+ degrees.

The class has a strong Vintage following and the event at Leigh on Sea was quite a spectacle.

The next event in just over a week is the UK Solo National Championship sponsored by Noble Marine, the venue is North Berwick and we expect some full-on racing over the six days of competition.
