Sailing will be run close to the shore in colour-matched fireflies and should be a good spectacle for all. The organisers are looking forward to welcoming visitors to Spinnaker Club, but, for those unable to watch the action from the shore, the event will be easy to follow online:
• Live Results, schedules and a blog will be available through the Event Website, together with all the race documentation.
• The event will also be widely covered on social media with a live and interactive Twitter run by Wessex Sailing Club: @WessexSC and Spinnaker: TeamRacing @SpinnyTR. To join the conversation, please use #Ladiestr15.
Of course, we will try to link up with it all via BUSA Sailing Facebook
