LORD BIRKETT MEMORIAL TROPHY
Ullswater YC, Lakeland
6/7July *Recommended* - If you have never sailed 'The Birkett' then you ought to!
Two long distance races the length of the lake take in a wonderful scenic tour and racing challenge through some of Lakeland's finest scenery. 230 dinghies on one start line the width of Ullswater provides an incredible spectacle!
The RS Aero is well suited for the race with its ability to respond quickly to the variable mountain breezes and it would be great to see a good fleet of RS Aeros taking part again.
Ashore there is a fabulous festival atmosphere from Friday with live music, a glorious location and the convenience of the adjacent field to camp/campervan.
