What would you like from next year’s Seldén SailJuice Winter Series?

 

As the dust settles at the end of the 14th edition of the Seldén SailJuice Winter Series, it’s time to take stock and consider what comes next...

Peter Gray & Geoff Edwards (Staunton Harold SC) were crowned overall winners of this season’s Seldén SailJuice Winter Series at the RYA Dinghy & Watersports Show, and many other prize winners came along to receive their awards on the Main Stage in Farnborough at the end of February.

In total, 77 different classes were represented across the nine events of the Series, and now we’re coming into spring those classes will mostly return to one-design competition organised by their own fleets.

Working with title sponsors Seldén Mast, who next winter return as title sponsors for the fifth consecutive season, co-organisers of the Series, Simon Lovesey and Andy Rice are keen to get the views of competitors and class representatives about how to make next year’s Seldén SailJuice Winter Series even better.

DINGHY RACING FORUM ONLINE

So at 7pm on 11 April 2023, Simon and Andy will be running a Dinghy Racing Forum to get your views. It will last just 60 minutes which will probably fly by, but it should be an interesting hour of discussion. You can sign up here:
