Winter is here in the UK and it is time to layer up and get set for the annual winter classics!
The RS Aero UK Winter Series again consists of 10 events with just the best 3 events to count. We have a great spread of both regions and dates from December through to March, allowing sailors the chance to qualify without too many winter miles.
Two excellent events at Highcliffe and Frensham and are new to the series. We return this season to the Bowmoor Bubble and Rutland's Tiger Trophy again. Five of the ever popular Selden SailJuice Winter Series events are included in our RS Aero series with a wonderful variety of format and racing challenges across the series.
The series kicked off on 1st December at the Bowmoor Bubble, the only event on the series exclusively for RS Aeros. With an impressive 30 RS Aeros entered at Bowmoor we could be in for a big series this year!

Every sailor who qualifies in the Series has an equal chance of winning the prize as they will all be entered into a draw.
