BSC Downriver cup 2026

Sunday 19th July, first start 15:00

The Sailing Committee is pleased to announce the BSC Downriver Cup, part of the Grand Prix Series.

You do not need to register for this event - this page is for information only. 

This event will not be run off our normal club line and round our usual marks; but instead will use a committee boat start with inflatable marks in the river basin between Osea and Northey islands.

We plan to run three races, and there will be one discard if we complete three races. There will be two fleets and two starts: short course and general handicap. The course will be triangle/sausage repeated until the course is shortened. The document linked here explains the course, start and finish line.

Downriver day instructions

There will be a briefing on the lower deck at 13:30. To allow time to reach the downriver course please launch as soon as there is water to do so.
