| A very warm welcome to the Royal Southern Yacht Club's 2008 Racing Programme. |

Here on the Racing home page you will find links to the latest news, results and files.
We could not host these events without the expertise and support of our volunteer members and staff, both afloat and ashore, so I take this opportunity to thank them all.

I wish you all fair winds and enjoyable sailing in 2008.

Event Report: Euro Cat, Carnac 2008
in Event Reports
|
 |
| Euro Cat is Europe's second biggest catamaran event, and this year sported 219 racing catamarans from high performance top of the range F18s to simple Hobie 16s and Dart 18s. It is held in the lovely bay of Quiberon , and is run from the Yacht Club de Carnac, though most people spend more time on the beach than at the Yacht Club |
| My crew and I, Tom Lyons, were racing Hobie Dragoon 944. The Hobie Dragoon is 13 feet long, has twin trapezes, a self tacking jib and an asymmetric spinnaker. It is the junior training catamaran. |

Report: First 40.7 National Championships
in Event Reports
|
 |
| Report by Eddie Mays for the First 40.7 Association |
| The high-pressure area sitting over the UK meant that it was after 1 p.m. before there was enough breeze for the Royal Southern's P.R.O. Peter Bateson to set a simple windward / leeward course for the 14 entries in the year's championship. Even then the breeze was barely above 5 knots all afternoon and, although nominally about 260 degs, it was subject to large & erratic shifts. |

| Notes from the PRO about WOKC classes and guide ratings |
| How did we choose the classes and the guidance on rating? Well, here's the background. |
WOKC is a new event for which the scale of demand is yet to be proved. There is a great deal of enthusiasm and interest so we are optimistic, but at this stage entries are only just beginning to come in.
We want to provide the best racing we can. |
