Orienteering Fest - Sunday 13th July - 12 to 4pm -

Published 01:00 on 5 Jul 2025

Dont miss the Orienteering Fest this weekend with not only a dinghy event, but a SUP/kayak event as well!
Start with the SUP/Kayak event then move on to the dinghy event, or just do one or the other. Winners for each event and a combined overall winner too.

12:00 Briefing for paddling event, 12:15 start, duration one hour

14:15 Briefing for Sailing event, 14:45 start, duration one hour

How it works : To begin, look at the map of the marks which will be at the clubhouse on the day, and how many points each is worth. Then work out which ones you can get to within the time limit. Then to the boats and the start line! Clip your card at each mark and when you have finished get back to the finish and hand-in your card. Penalties for going over the time limit ! Your boats' handicap and the time taken will be taken into account when calculating the results. If that sounds complicated, it will all be explained at a briefing at the start so that all juniors and adults understand the game.

The boat / paddleboard earning the most points will be the winner.

Galley at lunchtime will be BBQ. book via the Forum.

Once the event is over, the club BBQ will be lit, bring your own food to cook.
