Invitation to PRACC Rounds 1 and 2 2025

On Saturday, March 1st and Sunday, 2nd March 2025, HCMYC is hosting Rounds 1 and 2 of the A Class PRACC series. The sailing will take place on our water, the Rick Pond, which is adjacent to our clubhouse located in Home Park in the grounds of Hampton Court Palace.
Each day will be a separate round and there will be prizes awarded for the first 3 helms on each day.  Sailors can enter to sail either both days or just one of the days on the attached NOR.
There will be homemade soup at lunchtime, hot drinks will be available throughout the day.
There is plenty of free parking adjacent to the clubhouse, which will be open, heated and available all day. However, Home Park is closed at night with no overnight parking permitted.  There is a good campsite at Apps Court (KT12 2EG) located about 3 miles away.
We look forward to welcoming as many of you as possible for a good day’s sailing.
The formal Notice of Race is attached.
