Two events on 27th December, one in the North (Yorkshire Dales Brass Monkey) and in the South (Burghfield Breezer), and a great weather forecast too...
What better way to work off the Christmas overindulgence than a brisk sail on 27 December? For the first time ever, there are two events running on the same day for the Seldén SailJuice Winter Series. With mild temperatures and a moderate to strong south-westerly forecast for both events, it should be a day to remember, whichever you choose.
Yorkshire Dales Brass Monkey
It's three years since the last edition of the most northerly event in the series, when Colin and Oly Murray sailed their Norfolk Punt to victory on this stunningly beautiful lake surrounded by the hills of the Dales. There's a good entry already signed up for the event, ranging in speed from the Topper of Fred Buckley to the faster asymmetrics like Max & Colin Rawlinson's 29er and Jono Shelley's Musto Skiff.

Burghfield Breezer
Taking place for only the second time, last year's inaugural Burghfield Breezer near Reading in Berkshire was won by Nigel and Andy Bird in an Enterprise. So far there is a good entry from hiking singlehanders like the Blaze, Solo, OK and Laser. Racing his OK is former series winner and multiple dinghy champion Nick Craig, while Ben Flower won the Datchet Flyer at the beginning of the month and is entered for Burghfield in his Laser/ ILCA 7. Among the doublehanders are the Merlin Rocket of James and Sophia Clancy and a Tasar sailed by Peter Bell and Tim Simmons.
