The event always starts on the August Bank Holiday weekend and ends with the Trophy Day the following Saturday, the day of the Town Cup Trophy, one of the most coveted sailing trophies in the country.
With an eclectic mix of boats, from the cheerful dinghy slow handicap fleet, with the Corinthian Otters racing against BSC Seals, the Squibs and Sandhoppers, Burnham being their spiritual home, the sleek Dragons and the RS Elites, the venerable RCODs, RBODs and East Coast One Design, the fast dinghies, the class 1 and 2 cruisers along with the class 5 local handicap yachts, the regatta is always packed with competition on the water, while the three organizing clubs - RCYC, RBYC and BSC - have social programmes packed full.
There are a few days left until the Early Bird discount expires, at midnight on 18 August.
