The 4th annual Langstone Harbour Race Weekend is planned for the first May bank holiday. For those who have not entered before, the event is hosted by three sailing clubs which share the waters of Langstone Harbour; Locks SC, Langstone SC and Tudor SC.
The event invites dinghy sailors from all across the south coast and beyond to compete in the series of exciting races held within the harbour. This year, the organisers have decided to trial a different race format, with two races per day on the Saturday and Sunday, using simple 'Olympic' style courses. The final race on Monday will be a longer affair, using the many navigation marks around the harbour to test your orienteering skills.
The racing splits the competitors amongst three handicap fleets, fast, medium & slow, with separate starts for each.
It's not all about the racing! Each club takes turns to host a social event over the weekend and hopefully there will be something to suit everyone's tastes. On Friday evening Tudor SC start the weekend off with registration and a briefing before laying on an evening meal and live music. Locks SC follow of the Saturday evening with a BBQ and Langstone SC take their turn on Sunday night with food and a pub quiz. The weekend is rounded off on Monday afternoon with afternoon tea and a prize giving ceremony at Tudor SC.
We are really lucky to have such loyal supporters and sponsors, who typically donate some wonderful prizes. The organisers try to award these throughout the fleets, with prizes given not only to those who stand on the podium.
The event normally enjoys entries of 60+ boats, with a cap of 100 boats placed on the event. Please use our online entry system which goes live on 1st March 2012 to avoid disappointment.
