The legendary four days of racing and fun on the River Exe is back, and not to be missed! Saturday 10th - Tuesday 13th August 2024 at Starcross Yacht Club on the River Exe.
Open to all children aged 8-18 sailing a boat of PY 1136 and above (i.e. an Aero 5 and anything slower), in previous years the event has attracted over 40 entries, and sailors from right across the age range. The racing is split into Gold and Silver fleets - the Silver fleet has coaches in RIBs to provide support and encouragement for those new to racing and is suitable for everybody who is Stage 2-3 standard or above. The Gold Fleet is more competitive (and lots of fun as well!).
But it's not all about the racing! Fun and games, both on and off the water, will be organised around the racing times. In previous years there have been a Tug of War, water fights, an afternoon's trip to the beach at Dawlish Warren for sandcastle building, and "climb a Topper mast". Food will be available all weekend, with a big party on Saturday evening. The bar does a roaring trade for parents. Camping is available throughout the Regatta, and loads of people camp on the Saturday night.
Entries (which are limited) are now open.
