WHY NOT TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO VISIT GREENWICH YACHT CLUB FOR THE LONDON REGATTA

Dinghy racing will take place on a series of courses marked out in the River Thames between the Thames Barrier and the Emirates Cable Car.

This is the day the Thames Barrier will operate its annual full closure test from 08.25 to 18.25. The River Thames will temporarily be a non-tidal waterway and commercial traffic will be unable to sail up and down it. This makes it a unique and safe day once a year for dinghy sailors race on this stretch of the Thames in a great festival atmosphere.

 ANYONE WISHING TO TAKE PART SHOULD CONTACT Andy  AT cROROYDON SAILING CLUB  TO REGISTER  AS YOU HAVE TO TAKE YOUR OWN BOATS
