Loading ...Ramsgate Week 2010 @ Ramsgate Royal Harbour and Marina - Description
Vattenfall Ramsgate Week 2010 is the Royal Temple Yacht Club annual regatta and is widely recognised as the friendly regatta and the alternative to Cowes.
Ramsgate Week 2010 will accommodate IRC classes 1-3, one design classes & 3 cruiser classes – two white sails only.
In 2010 our racing programme has been amended to provide a gap between the end of Cowes Week and the start of Ramsgate Week. We are also hosting an IRC Series for classes 1-3 running from Thursday to Saturday requiring only 2 days away from the office to come and participate in what is the friendliest & least expensive regatta in one of the most up and coming holiday towns in the UK.
Competitors are now able to select the races they wish to enter from the menu options below:
IRC Mid week series – IRC Classes 1-3 series of 3 special and coastal races, 1 race per day from Monday to Wednesday with the Wednesday race being round the Goodwin sands. This is a warm up series to the main IRC Series and competitors will be treated to some of the most scenic waters with races extending to Botany Bay, the shingle beaches off Deal and the wildlife around the Goodwin Sands.
IRC Regatta series – IRC Classes 1-3 series of 7 races with 3 races on Thursday, 2 on Friday and 2 on Saturday. This series starts on Thursday and finishes on Saturday.
SailEAST – IRC Classes 1-3 a highly competitive 4 race series of SailEAST qualifying races as both part of the IRC Ramsgate Week Series. The SailEAST Regatta series starts on Friday and finishes on Saturday. The best 3 races from this 4 race series will count towards SailEAST points.
X-35 Class – East Coast Open Championships, results to be extracted from IRC class 1. Series of 7 races with 3 races on Thursday, 2 on Friday and 2 on Saturday. This series starts on Thursday and finishes on Saturday. The X-35 class will sail under IRC with all boats using the class handicap.
Class 5 Unrestricted cruiser class with spinnakers. This is intended for cruiser sailors or racers who may be shorthanded for the week. There are no sail restrictions for this class but a yacht choosing to be rated in this class without spinnakers must remain without spinnakers throughout the entire
series. Boats competing in this Class will be issued an RTYC Handicap TCC figure by the Race
Committee. Handicaps may be adjusted to maintain the spirit of this class.Class 6 Fast cruiser class without spinnakers. This is intended for the less serious racer with non high tech sails and the use of spinnakers is prohibited. Boats competing in this Class will sail a
longer course than Class 7 and will be issued an RTYC Handicap TCC figure by the Race Committee. Handicaps may be adjusted to maintain the spirit of this class.Class 7 Slow cruiser class without spinnakers. This is intended for the less serious racer with non high tech sails and the use of spinnakers is prohibited. Boats competing in this Class will sail a shorter course than Classes 5 & 6 and will be issued an RTYC Handicap TCC figure by the Race
Committee. Handicaps may be adjusted to maintain the spirit of this class.The Cruiser class 5,6 & 7 series starts on Monday with 1 race each day finishing on Saturday.
