54 RS Aero 5 & 7s are arriving at Tenby, South Wales to contest the 2023 RS Aero UK Nationals. Tenby's vibrant town, welcoming sailing club and wonderful beaches will provide an excellent setting for the week long champs and the race area off the exposed southwest corner of Wales is sure to deliver some exciting racing.
The forecast is encouraging with a range of predominantly medium breeze conditions, ample sunshine and little rain. The two fleets are approximately equal in size which will please the Race Officer, Nigel Denchfield, when laying the start lines.
RS Sailing are providing charter RS Aeros which has enticed international visitors from Australia and Iceland.
A full social programme is arranged in Tenby's welcoming club on the harbour quay with Happy Hours all day, a Penderyn Welsh Whisky tasting evening, Disco and Band planned. The week kicks off with pre-event RS Aero coaching ashore which is great for both those new to the class and a recap and new take for those more experienced.
The Class looks forward to contesting the annual Club and Family Champs at Tenby. The Club Champs is awarded from for the best 3 combined overall results from each Club (6 qualifiers) and the Family Champs is for the best 2 combined overall results from each Family (7 qualifiers).
Racing starts Sunday 20th through to Friday 25th August, with 13 races scheduled and a mid-week lay day to enjoy the location to the full!
Thanks to Rooster and Penderyn Welsh Whisky for their excellent support!
