“The UKLA Nationals was such a fun event last year. There was something for everyone. The racing was extremely competitive throughout the fleet and age groups. There were also racing clinics held everyday, great prize givings, evening activities and a black tie auction dinner which raised a lot of money for the Andrew Simpson Foundation. It’s definitely a must do event for all ILCA sailors regardless of experience or ability.!”
(Daisy Collingridge, 2021 ILCA 6 National Champion)
