Sailing Chandlery Northern Tour AND Stewart Brewing Scottish Tour, Tynemouth, 21/22 June

West Country Boat Repairs SW Ugly Tour, Cornish Champs, Restronguet, 5/6 July
The Cornish would love to call this the Nationals, we don't think Cornwall is a country (yet?), but with the fab RS200 fleet in Cornwall great competition is assured.

Look out for the NoR coming soon...
Stewart Brewing Scottish Tour, Royal Findhorn, 12/13 July
