There will be plenty of time to talk tactics and by the end of the week you will be sure to have caught the racing bug!
All racing participants will be based on the pontoon in the middle of Barton Broad. There will be 3 races to participate in most days and a pontoon cafe with refreshments, soup, sandwiches and cake to keep your energy levels up throughout.
We will have exclusive use of the beautiful How Hill for our evening accommodation with ensuite rooms, a lounge and conservatory area for evening socilaising, an honesty bar and hot food available throughout the week.
This is a race week fully of friendly competition and good humour. You do not have to be an experienced racer to take part as the emphasis is on having fun and light hearted competition. If you have always fancied racing a beautiful Norfolk yacht then this is your opportunity.
