THE RACE FOR THE TROPHY

As the summer season draws to a close, the excitement continues at West Wick Yacht Club with our Open Winter Racing Series and as many refer to as the highlight of our sailing calendar.

Running every fortnight from September to December, races take place on Sunday mornings with the starting horn released at 11:00am, offering a thrilling blend of competition, Team spirit, friendship and fun on the water.

All sailing boats are welcome to take part, with handicaps carefully adjusted to suit both boat type and crew ability, ensuring fair, competitive, and enjoyable racing for sailors of all experience levels. Each race promises an adventure, with changing conditions and close finishes that keep both newcomers and seasoned racers coming back for more.
