Thursday evening racing

Solent Sunbeams have an informal race most Thursday evenings from around mid April to the end of September from Itchenor Sailing Club. Read about the origins of these races.

This is not a race series but a sequence of individual races. The races are run by class members in turn, using an open launch as a committee boat. The winner receives a bottle of wine presented by the organiser for that evening at a convivial supper at Itchenor Sailing Club. Guests are regularly invited to enjoy the delights of Thursday evening racing, often experiencing our peaceful and beautiful harbour in the setting sun.

Here are the the Thursday evening PRO notes and guides to packing away Dolphin, the Ferry and the club RIBs.
