The 8th Hamble Classics Regatta on August 26th-27th already has some great entries, Whooper, Uandi, and the gaff-rigged 6-Metre Sheila amongst them, and with near forty International 6-Metres soon to arrive in Cowes for their World Championship the event is offering these teams a well-organised practice and tune-up regatta with windward-leeward courses in the Central Solent. All 6's are welcome, modern and classic, with five races scheduled over two days.
Hamble Classics was created in 2016 by Jonty and Vicki Sherwill and designed as a late season celebration of classic yachting to welcome all styles of classic yachts with racing formats to suit each type including Classic Racers, Cruisers and Dayboats, the International Metre classes, Old Gaffers, Spirit of Tradition and One-Designs.
Hamble Classics 2023 has race management provided by Hamble River Sailing Club, famous for its popular Hamble Winter Series, with Peter Bateson as PRO, and the Royal Air Force Yacht Club as shore base and social venue.
