UK RIVER CHAMPIONSHIPS - Nottingham SC, Sunday 17th Sept  
Anymore for racing on the Trent on Sunday? We are up to 18 now - will we top last year's 23 on the Severn?
Online entry closes tonight, but you can still enter on the day too. Forecast looks like some nice medium breezes with some sunshine!
River racing provides a fabulous challenge with gain and loss opportunities continuously, perfect for sharpening all round racing skills.
 
Here's another great movie of racing on the Trent by Chris Barrow from his helicopter; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0mGfyDKeGE&t=35s

The early entry discount ends tonight. Save yourself £3 by signing up via the event page and then pay less on the day.
Most importantly this helps our hosts at the Nottingham Sailing Club organise resourcing of safety cover and catering. It also saves completing a form and the club having to input all the entry data on the day, leaving more time for coffee, bacon and Aero chat!

UK River Championships 
Nottingham SC, Sunday 17th Sept 
Here is a great aerial movie to whet your appetite for a bit of river action!
 
Thanks to Chris Barrow of NSC for getting is helicopter out to film their racing on the Trent earlier this year.
 
The 2016 UK River Champs was one of the most enjoyable days out sailing during an incredible season. River sailing requires some specific skills providing an interesting challenge that can then improve your open water sailing no end. 

Our RS Aero designer and Olympic Medallist, Jo Richards, developed his skills in the testing river environment at Avon. Jo's top tip for river sailing is;
"Sail intuitively, you don't have time to consider a decision! Embrace and enjoy the challenges."

We had 23 boats on the start line for the inaugural River Champs at Avon SC in 2016 which was excellent fun - a really interesting RS Aero challenge!
There are already lots of RS Aeros based on rivers throughout the UK and river sailing provides an rewarding challenge that requires some specific skills that can then improve your open water sailing no end.
