ILCA UK Master Representative - Gareth Humphrey

Hi All,

The Master events continue to be well represented and have shown growth over the last few years. Currently we have three Master events in 2026, two on the south coast (the first in May at WPNSA followed in July by the Master Nationals at Parkstone Yacht Club) and then the Inlands at Draycote Water SC in November.

The ILCA Master events provide competetive racing but are also a great opportunity for those wanting to improve their racing skills. There is always plenty of help and advice on-hand. The Master events are well structured to provide racing in great locations with suitable facilities and safety.

To help with understanding how we can make the Master events even better there is a survey to capture views, please do fill this ILCA UK Masters Survey

Regards

Gareth
