HAVE YOU VOTED YET?
Voting closes on Sunday night.
We need every vote, it only takes a few seconds....


The RS Aero Class, our sailors and our events have come close to winning these awards a few times before. With an extra push this could be our year!! We need everyone’s vote to be successful together though. It takes just a few seconds to submit your vote.
We have three RS Aero related nominations this year;
  • Youth Sailor of the Year - Tim Hire
  • Event of the Year - RS Aero UK National Championships
  • Clothing Innovation of the Year - Rooster 50N Bouyancy Aid

Tim Hire
Tim has steadily come to form in the RS Aero Class. Already at just 18 years old he has an impressive list of achievements, including;
  • Steve Nicholson Trophy, Northampton, 1st in 2019
  • RS Aero 7 UK Youth Champs - 1st in 2019 & 2020
  • RS Aero 7 UK Nationals - 3rd (& 1st Youth) in both 2019 & 2020
  • RS Aero 7 Europeans, Garda - 6th (& 1st Youth) in 2019
  • RS Aero 9 UK Nationals - 2nd (& 1st Youth) in 2020
  • Seldon SailJuice Winter Series - 4th (& 1st Youth) out of 656 entries in 2020 
 That is hugely impressive, but more important than race results is that Tim is an all round nice guy and a good sport. As an older & taller youth sailor he can be found helping the rest of the Youth Team launch when we have tough conditions like this year's Bloody Mary (pic) and various youth training weekends.
 Tim is modest with his accomplishments in victory and generous with his complements in defeat - a splendid role model for all our younger youth sailors.
 Tim deserves everyone's support worldwide, please take the trouble to vote now.

RS Aero UK National Championships
We were incredibly fortunate to be able to hold our premier UK RS Aero event in 2020 - the UK Nationals with 102 competitors. Eastbourne Sovereign SC pulled out all the stops to overcome adversity and the small club with a passionately keen army of volunteers committed to making our Champs possible whilst other Classes were less fortunate. We are indebted to them for having those nice memories to savour through this winter. Here is our opportunity to collectively show our gratitude.

Rooster

 CELEBRATING UK’S 2020 SAILING EVENT SUCCESSES 

"But for me E (-Sailing) is on the alphabetical pathway to getting out on the water, proper, and few come close to RS and their RS Aero in making this happen in such a fun way. The RS Aero Nationals saw over 100 sailors of all ages racing at Eastbourne Sovereign Sailing Club. It is thanks to their phenomenal efforts together with the class association and their Covid-safe practices that the event was held to great acclaim by the local community" Andrew Pindar - GAC Pindar
