Take part in the inaugural Trade, Commerce and Industry Cup Regatta, for businesses from the New Forest and beyond, organised by the New Forest Business Partnership and the Royal Lymington Yacht Club.

This is a one day race event on the Solent, with the opportunity to take part as crew, by racing a RS21 Keelboat, provided by RS Sailing, or as a spectator on a rather more sedate luxury yacht, provided by Escape Yachting.

The event is open to all - you don't need to be a member of NFBP or RLymYC.  There will be plenty of opportunities to network and meet up with crews, clients and colleagues throughout the day - from the networking breakfast through to the evening's barbecue and prizegiving!

Take part as an individual or as a company.

Racing

There are 3 places on each RS21 for those with some experience of dinghy racing. The RS21s will be skippered by sailors who took part in the recent Youth Sailing World Championships.  You can also enter as a skipper if you hold at least Level 3 Professional Skipper. Your entry fee includes networking breakfast, race management, race documentation, online entry system, keeper prizes, on the water resources including committee boat, RIBs, jury boat and volunteer support.
