Hi Folks, The 2020 RYA Dinghy Show is taking place on Sat. 29 Feb. and Sun. 1 March. As in previous years the Sprint 15 Association is exhibiting. :D I am co-ordinating the event for the Class and am seeking help from volunteers to man the stand and espouse the benefits of our wonderful sailing frat...
Just to advise, the survey will go live on 10 December - that's today! Members should expect to receive an email from The Leadership Factor (TLF) who are carrying out the survey on behalf of the RYA. Your committee very much hopes that members will take part and would like to thank you in advance. T...
In reply to AJ3XX (Andy) - (would be good to have your full name and location): In principle, I see no reason why lapsed members or prospective members may not be included in the survey. Details of it are already on this website and on Facebook and Twitter. However, we are primarily interested in th...
May I echo the 'Thank You' comments from others - what a memorable event. The Events Team and HTSC did us proud. So much to remember and reflect upon. And a huge shout out to our 2019 champion, David Ball. What a truly stunning set of results in such testing conditions - 'well deserved' would be an ...

Hi Folks,
Just to confirm that, sadly , I've cancelled the event due to lack of take-up of places which makes it financially not viable.
See you at Harwich for the main event.
My attendance confirmed. I propose to sail in Sport mode in keeping with the preference for same by the locals. Anybody else....?
See you there on Friday pm
Hi Folks and Nats. competitors
Just to bring this to your attention again.
Currently I have only one sailor confirmed as wanting to attend
So there are still a guaranteed 9 places still available
Standing by........
Liam has just landed on Mull of Kintyre - 46 miles of open water from last night's stop on Mull of Galloway. Epic!!
Will he make it to Harwich for the Nats.?
Hi All, The Association is organising a training day on Thursday 15 August (the day before the Nationals) at Harwich Town Sailing Club. In similar fashion to the event which took place before the Nationals at Weymouth last year, the purpose is to give sailors the opportunity to sharpen up their raci...
My very best wishes to you, Thomas. I hope you'll be happy back in the home country. I've been to Copenhagen a few times and thought it a wonderful city. You will be missed in the S15 fleet for your competitive and skilful sailing, never better demonstrated in my opinion when we all took part in Eur...
Hi Lee,
Sounds like a good find. You'll probably need to buy a new tramp - good used ones are hard to find.
Suggest you talk to Windsport. You might also need to replace the tramp tracks but Windsport will advise.
Hope that helps.
