April 25, 2014
The Royal Yacht Squadron has confirmed that Rolex will be supporting the Club’s Bicentenary Regatta, clinic the spectacular international sailing event that will celebrate 200 years of the historic club’s existence in July 2015.
The multi-format regatta which takes place from 25th to 31st July 2015 in the UK’s Solent will attract yachts both large and small, cialis classic and modern, from J-Class to J80 by offering a choice of racing fleets for competitors to take part in. The whole event will consist of four days of inshore racing from either the Squadron line or a committee vessel with also a clockwise Race Around the Island (RATI).
Rear Commodore Yachting David Aisher commented: “The Bicentenary Regatta next year will be a fitting tribute to the Royal Yacht Squadron’s close involvement in yachting since its inception. The varied fleets will represent years of continual development in the yachts themselves and the equipment that they carry. The owners and their crews will bring together the many international relationships that have developed over the two centuries of our existence. It will be a celebration of yachting at its best. We look forward to welcoming all who are coming and the competition on the water that will take place.”
