The ORCV has long been associated with double-handed sailing and this is its entrée into the wonderful world of short-handed sailing.
Sailed around a bay course, this event provides a challenge to those who wish to test themselves in a short-handed sailing format, as well as providing valuable training for those who are contemplating participating in the Double-Handed Race category of longer races conducted by the club.
Team racing is a traditional component of the event with Clubs and competitors encouraged to compete for the Perpetual Teams Trophy.
The Race, starting in the vicinity of the Royal Brighton Yacht Club, will be approximately 22 NM in length incorporating a course specifically designed for Double-Handed racing.
