LATEST UPDATES!

We wanted to give you an update on our brand new regatta which opened for entry quite recently. When we first asked for expression of interest - we were thrilled to see over 70 boats registered - however since entries have opened - we have only had one boat enter and despite many shares across social media - the list has not increased.

 

So we have spoken to fellow sailors about this and to ask what they as potential competitors would like. The general answer is a simple fun and good sociable weekend away with the emphasis on fun and supporting the charity rather than a multiple serious racing event. So taking that into account we have made the following changes to the event -

1. The overnight feeder race on the 10th July from Inverkip to Ardrishaig remains unchanged.

2. The Oban to Crinan feeder race on the 11th July remains unchanged.

3. The feeder race from Ardfern to Crinan on the 11th July for 2.4mrs and Challengers will no longer go ahead and and these two classes will move to Crinan for extra races.

4. The Crinan to Oban Pursuit Race on 13th July remains unchanged.

5. The Main Regatta Day on the 12th July will see the following changes -

No IRC Classes will be accommodated unless there are sufficient entries.

All classes will run as two CYCA classes for spinnaker and restricted sail.

Classic Classes will have results available separately but will be included in the main overall results of the two main classes.

Double handed classes will be heavily encouraged to attend and race within the restricted sail class.

The race schedule for all competitions apart from

the Para Classes will be changed to 2 long races of about 1.5hrs-2hrs long within the Sound of Jura and Loch Craignish both starting and finishing from Crinan. If time allows, a quick third race will be run.

The start time will be changed from 11am to 10:30am with Para Classes starting at 12:00pm

We’re also pleased to confirm a revised entry fee for the event.

The AOTW Package which is Feeder race, Regatta and Pursuit Race is now - £50

Feeder Race and Regatta - £35

Feeder Race only or Pursuit Race only - £15

Para Class entries remain Free of Charge

We hope that by doing it this way will simplify the event and allow shorter crewed boats to be able to take part and in general enjoy the event.
