PYC Presents the Trio Regatta

Trio Regatta – Sat 12th, Sun 13th and Wed 16th June Wednesday’s a public holiday so no need to worry about work...

This is the next BIG regatta that the RNYC will be staging. If you have not entered yet, or cobbled a crew together, it's time to do that!

PYC need to get a team together, last time we won it thanks to Skitzo and Eikos ... can we do it again?!

The Trio Regatta incorporates the IRC Provincials and Flying Fifteen Nationals. A SASKRS class split into big and small Keelers will be open to Wednesday night boats.

There are some Melges 24s coming up from Cape Town for this regatta, and a bunch of Pacer 27s from the Vaal, and rumours of at least 6 clubs competing in the inter-club component.

Looks to be a great event so don’t let your club down, lets get ourselves onto the water!!

Please call Bronwyn for more information on 031-301 5425/031-301 5425 or email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Durban is the place to sail in July 2010 MSC Regatta information

Durban is the place to sail in July 2010. Once again the Regatta is being sponsored by MSC, to whom we are extremely grateful. MSC’s patronage includes free shipping to and from Durban. As MSC runs a fully cellular service, this offer is restricted to boats that can fit into a 20’ or 40’ container or onto a flat rack; ideal for small keelboats and sports boats. Transnet have agreed to waive the port handling charges so this is a really great deal.
