2019 regatta cancelled
The 2019 competition on 29 June was cancelled early on 20 June as there had been little if any direct interest and no entries. Back to the drawing board yet again!
The following text has not been updated to take account of the cancellation and is being kept for the time being as archive
New format for 2019
After some hesitations in the last couple of years, we have new ideas for 2019, as we describe here. We hope to combine a bit of fun with some fairly serious racing, but maybe in unfamiliar combinations for some.
