Hayling Island Sailing Club is delighted to announce that Rooster will be the title sponsor of our upcoming Open Meeting for the Flying Fifteen, Fireball, 505 and Merlin classes from Saturday 6th - Sunday 7th June 2026.

As part of their support for the two-day Open Meeting, Rooster will be providing a range of kit for overall prizes for competitors.

This title sponsorship reflects the ongoing partnership between Rooster and Hayling Island Sailing Club. Rooster has been the Official Clothing Partner of HISC since 2025.

This Open Meeting provides a great opportunity for competitive racing, not least for the 505 Class, with the World Championships taking place at HISC during the following month.

Everyone at HISC is looking forward to welcoming our visitors and hosting another successful Open Meeting.
