Saturday 30th October K1 open meeting
Saturday March 20th K1 open meeting (details to follow)
Sunday March 21st Exmoor Beastie.
The Beastie is an annual signature event that takes place in early Spring.
It is a three-hour pursuit race where racers typically follow the complete outline of the lake. The slowest boats are the first to set off based the Portsmouth Yardstick standard handicap system.
If you're wondering how the race became known as 'The Beastie', in part it derives from the legenadary 'beast of Exmoor' - but mostly it is due to the variable weather and 'interesting' sailing conditions often encountered in the Spring.
