Henri-Lloyd Sailing Regatta July 9, 2008

The Henri-Lloyd Weymouth Regatta will see up to eighty boats take part in four days of competitive racing in the world-class sailing waters of Weymouth Bay and Portland Harbour.

The main keelboat classes competing in the event will be the Sigma 33, J24, National Squib and MG C27 plus a handicap fleet. The programme will be made up of both short and long distance races, with a vast choice of courses to suit all wind directions.

Visiting boats are welcome and will receive temporary membership to all yacht clubs on entry.

With visitor berths located in the unique setting of Weymouth’s Old Harbour, close to many restaurants, bistros and pubs, sailors and spectators can look forward to a great atmosphere, both on and off the water.

This is just one of a whole range of fantastic activities and events to suit all ages that are taking place as part of Weymouth and Portland's first ever 'Spirit of the Sea Festival'. For more information about this or any other event involved please visit the website at www.spiritofthesea.org.uk
