Ullswater Yacht Club launches into 2023 with a packed sailing programme for club members and seven major open events for visiting racers.
The opens include the 61st Lord Birkett Memorial Trophy, the traditional April opener the Daffodil Regatta and the Flying Fifteen Northern Championships.
The award-winning Lord Birkett Memorial Trophy will be held, as usual, on the first full weekend of July - 1 & 2. There will also be a warm welcome for visiting competitors at six other opens held throughout the sailing season.
The competitive year for opens kicks off on April 22 & 23 with UYC's traditional Daffodil Regatta which accepts all classes with separate starts for a Windward/Leeward Fleet including VX Ones and Musto Skiffs, and a Handicap Fleet for double/single handers and cruisers, including newcomers, the OK fleet. There'll be daffodils galore at the prize-giving as UYC joins in Ullswater's spring celebrations featuring Wordsworth's famous poem.
Daffodil Regatta entries are through the UYC website: ullswateryachtclub.org/event/759113
