Over 100 Squibs
SQUIB NATIONAL ENTRIES HAVE BEEN CLOSED AT 108 BOATS (27 June - 3 July)
This is the highest number of boats that has been achieved in a National Squib Championships and is a sure sign of the popularity of Weymouth as a sailing venue.
Well done to Peter Hopford and team the who have been working hard to put the show together and to the sponsors for supporting the event.
The Squib despite being a boat of some vintage continues to attract top sailors and regularly achieves high turnouts for Club racing - 20 boats were on the start line on Thursday evening. Good luck to the Weymouth fleet in the Championships.
Sponsors supporting the event are Dean and Reddyhoff Marinas, Haven Holidays, Dream Cottages, The Heights Hotel (Portland), Arthur Savage Insurance, Lonton and Gray Sails, Hyde Sails, Batt Sails, Palmers Beer, Blakes Paints, O'Three, Holt, Ronstan, Clipper Teas.
