Sailingfast is delighted to be sponsoring the UKLA ILCA Grand Prix 2024.
ILCA specialists Sailingfast is sponsoring the UKLA ILCA Grand Prix Circuit for 2024. Check out the website for a wide range of official, class-legal boats, sails, covers, ropes & other chandlery.
Grand Prix events are run by clubs and are part of series. They are a great way to start sailing in an ILCA fleet and compete in a one design boat where sailor’s skill is not dis/advantaged by a boat design.
Circuits are split into regions – please head to the UKLA website and click on the Events section for details of events in your area.
2021 – Georgie Altam Photography
Mark Lyttle says, ‘We are excited to have Sailingfast on board as the title sponsor for the Grand Prix Circuit this year. The team already give the class so much support at the ILCA Qualifiers, the Nationals and with the Masters fleets.
Duncan is already a well-kent face in the class at the top end, hopefully this will introduce us to more of the club-level sailors who maybe don’t go to the Qualifiers and Nationals… yet!
He says, ‘ We currently work with Ovington Boats and Element 6 to supply the ILCA class in the UK with the best kit on the market. With Rory Wilson joining the team, we hope to better support the sailors with kit when and where they need it.’
Want to know where we will be and when? Keep an eye on the Sailingfast Social Media pages on Facebook and Instagram in particular.
