Big Boat Spring Cup - 18 & 19 February
Incorporating the Big Boat Class Champs and the Uin-na-Mara Series, this new format features five races in a combination of windward leeward, and passage / islands races.
Open to IRC and HKPN rated Big Boats, the entry deadline was yesterday, however if you are nice to Iris, you can still get on the start line for this weekend's racing!
Full details at http://www.rhkyc.org.hk/SpringCup.aspx
Po Toi Challenge - 4 March
A fantastic new initiative by the RHKYC Young Members' Subcommittee to get more young sailors involved in the Club's activities, whether members or not.
Each boat is required to take a number of new crew, start when they like and race the pre-determined course to Po Toi under HKPN - the idea is that all competitors reach Po Toi at around the same time, as the restaurant is booked out for lunch.
Full details, entry and registration forms are available at http://www.rhkyc.org.hk/potoichallenge.aspx
