We have had a communication from the organisers of the 2026 DF95 Globals over in South Africa. The have a web page available along with some details of the program for the event. I have put up some details regarding the allocation of places for the event along with the web link. Check out the page here.
There are still a couple of events left for you to up your score in the TT rankings to assist you in getting a GBR invite. Good luck.
Results from the weekend at Fleetwood are available on the Results page along with the up to date TT scores.
Results, reminders and registrations. All the things you need for a Friday morning!
First up we have the results from last weekend’s Dartmoor adventures, they can be found on the Results 25 page where the up to date TT scores are also shown.
Second up a reminder from the venerable Uncle Derek of Fleetwood about the upcoming summer TT event at the club. You can find more details on the Event page
In past years, Fleetwood have hosted the last/final DF TT weekends but this year we are hosting a summer one and so we’ll have some daylight. To celebrate, in addition to all the usual things you have come to expect from Fleetwood we’re planning a summer sunshine Saturday evening Barbeque, and Pimms party at the clubhouse, for everyone! All food and accompaniments and Pimms will be provided and included in your entry fee, just bring your drinks.
Entry and payment is through the MYA entry system
We look forward to welcoming you all to Fleetwood in July.
And finally a note to let you know that the registrations should fire back up in the next day or so as Jen returns from a week away. If you sent a registration request whilst Jen was away then it will no doubt be dealt with in good time.
As we all know its always nice to have a holiday and our registrar Jen is going away for a week or so.
She will not be issuing registrations between 4th June and 12th June. If you apply to register a DF65 or DF95 during that period please do not expect a response until the 13th June.
As I posted the details of everything else on Monday I had an email from EKRSC to let me know that the NoR had been published and the MYA online entry was now open for the DF95 Nationals which is taking place over the weekend of the 27th and 28th September at Bartons Point on Sheppey.
For more details please head to the event page by clicking here.
It’s only been a couple of weeks since I last posted about upcoming events and since then there has been lots going on that we need to let you know about. First up is the result from the latest TT event held at Keighley a week or so ago. The results from each day are posted on the Results 25 page along with updated overall TT scores for the season.
Second is the upcoming TT events, first in line is the Dartmoor TT in June, well worth the trip to the SW and the beauty of Dartmoor and surrounding area. Then in July we have a trip to Fleetwood to look forward to. An iconic model yachting venue where the wind can be stunningly good and the welcome is always great.
Online entry for both events is available through the drop down events menu.
Finally we have the DF95 Nationals in late September. No NoR or online entry just yet but the East Kent RSC, who are organising the event, have had some enquiries about accommodation close to the lake and have negotiated a deal with a local hotel. again, details available through the drop down events menu.
One more event that isn’t an official DF TT is the upcoming Great Orme MYC double header DF event later in May. Lots of interest and entries for this which will be held at the historic West Shore boating lake in Llandudno. Fancy a trip to the North Wales seaside for some radio sailing, head over to the club entry page for more details – Clicky here.
Other than that I hope you are all enjoying the great weather and you are getting out there and enjoying your club sailing whilst the weather holds.
So, whilst I’ve been ill, having an operation and recovering I’ve missed giving you a nudge to get your entries in for the upcoming TT event at Keighley. It starts in a week or just over so if you want to go you should probably crack on and get yourself an entry in. Details are under the Events heading in the menu.
The next TT after that sees us heading to the SW corner of the country and the beautiful Dartmoor. There is plenty of time to get yourself entered into this one but don’t forget. Again, details are under the Events heading.

It seems that those who turned up at Lincoln RSC for the DF65 Nationals had a stellar weekend of racing. Lots of rig changes which were sometimes quite important, great breeze and some cracking social made for a proper Lincoln weekend. Results and report available on the Results 25 page.
Next TT event is at Keighley over the weekend of the 3 – 4 May.
We are just under a week away from the entry deadline for the 2025 DF65 Nationals which are being held at Lincoln RSC over the weekend of the 29th and 30th March. The numbers are a little on the light side with the absence of some top names which offers a great opportunity for someone else to put their name on the Championship trophy.
The racing will be as great as ever at Scotland Farm and the club members are constantly making the facility better each time we visit. The water is as blue as it gets inland and the lake allows for really great courses to be set in a variety of wind directions. Parking is plentiful and easy to access too.
On the social side there is plenty to do, from a debrief at The Railway to an evening meal at one of the other local pubs. Accommodation is close by and caters for all budgets. A Saturday evening meal is planned at The Railway which is included in the entry fee.
I can’t see a reason not to enter, can you? No doubt the Lincoln club will organise the weather, all you need to do is get your entry in before 2100 on Wednesday 26th March.
We have a report available on the Results 25 page. It details the weekend at Blithfield SC and has a couple of photos. Thanks Messrs Reid and Woodhead. Click here to take a look.
