Re: Events 2023

Would be great to get a good Finn turnout at Roadford for the classic nationals. I was going to bring my Europe but if we get some more Finns then that could change. looking forward to going down to Roadford again.

Re: Roadford Who’s Coming

Hi All, Many thanks for laying on a smashing w/end at Roadford. It was well worth the trip from the Island and sailing on the lake makes a great change from battling the tides off of Cowes.

Re: Finn nationals

Hi All, I very much liked the classic finn nationals being held as a separate event like used to take place at Roadford (these events got me back into the Finn). No matter how hard we try the classics don't really fit with racing in a modern fleet. The courses and venues the modern fleet quite right...
