THE countdown is on for the start of the Silvers Marine Scottish Series regatta which starts on Friday May 26. Based at Tarbert, Loch Fyne, this is the 43rd event and is organised by Clyde Cruising Club (CCC). The four-day race format continues until Monday May 29 with the series prize-giving after the final day’s sailing.
David Denholm, event chairman, said: ‘All seems set fair for a spectacular event and that goes for the weather too. Initial indications are for fine conditions and a light breeze and the wind gradually filling over the weekend. This should provide great sailing and a wonderful spectacle over the bank holiday weekend.’
The regatta provides ‘something for everyone’ – a combination of mainly passage racing for the white sail fleet and highly competitive racing for the One Design, IRC and CYCA fleets.
