13th + 14th June: Stokes Bay Open Meeting |
Stokes is a great bit of the Solent for dinghy racing and home club for two europes. With palm trees next to the club and a stunning view of the Isle of Wight it is very easy to forget just how close this club is to Gosport (...and Pompey)! Joint with the RS 300s and OKs as well as having camping available in the field, this promises to be a great social event with and excellent chance to play in the waves prior to the nationals.
