Entry to the RS Aero Dutch Eurocup is now OPEN via the Class Website events page!
This event is taking part alongside the RS Tera World Championships and thus we anticipate a good RS Aero turnout added to by ex Tera sailors, older siblings and Tera parents. 26-27th July are 2 coached 'Lift-Off' days and the 3 day Eurocup regatta is 28-30th July.
We have heard from 25 boats already from a variety of countries who are keen for this event so together with the Tera Worlds it should have a real International buzz. The following week is the RS500 World Championships at the same venue, so it is all going on at Aquavitesse!
