Magnificent location with plenty of nearby accommodation. Consistent sea breezes, some fun off water activities and plenty of tourist attractions.

This is going to be the event of the season. 6 days of sailing, 2 catered events. Its going to be huge fun right in the middle of the summer holiday when the sea breeze is most consistent. The prestige and fun of the F16 National is complimented with the inaugural edition of the F-Cup where F16 and F18 teams will duel it out for honours. Its going to be epic!
