Windermere Winter Series 2027

The 2027 series will consist of 6 race days across three weekends between February 13 and Mar 14. The intention is to run several short races per day giving the same number of races and discards as the original series. YTC rating system will be used. This is free to obtain. Info on YTC here. In the case of delay obtaining a rating, WCA will allocate the applicable one design value.

There will be a single fleet with overall and class results published.

This series will be classed as the 2027 Sonata Inland Championship. SB20s will also be given a separate class result if a minimum of 5 boats enter.

Entries will open on 8th November at 12:00. The event page with Notice of Race is here.

Fees.

Entry fee will be £215.
Alongside berthing is £250. Moorings and boat park storage £150. Berths should be arranged directly with Lake Wardens, after registering for the event. Details here.

Berthing

There will be no dry sailing for keelboats but Lake Wardens have offered 5 berths alongside in Ferry Nab Marina, with circa 4 moorings behind Belle Isle. SB20s will dry launch and will be stored in the locked boat park at the top of the main car park.

WCA gratefully acknowledges the continuing support of Low Wood Marina and our other partner organisations.
