    Prize Giving to be held in OMalleys after racing, I am reliably informed that someone is going to tape the rugby for viewing at the pub.
    If numbers allow all competitors will race in a single fleet, the comittee reserve the right to split the fleet and run heats for places in Gold and Silver Fleets, Prizes will be available for both fleets.

Please have your landyacht in good working order as races will be run on a tight schedule with approximately 1 minute gaps between races.

Please insure your landyachts have both 1DL logos and sail numbers on the sails. TV cameras will be present. (obviously 1DL logos will be for sale at a very reasonable price!!)

To enter please e-mail me back with your sail number, boat name, and available crystal colours.

Entry fee £2 toward prizes payable at the event.
