2012 Vice Admiral's Cup Set To Break All Previous Entry Records
And Incorporate Inshore GBR Team Trials For Brewin Dolphin Commodores' Cup
The Royal Corinthian Yacht Club's 2012 Vice Admiral's Cup Regatta
[http://www.rcyc.co.uk/da/13094], to be held between Friday 18th and Sunday 20th
May, looks set to break all previous records with more than 60 entries anticipated.
The eighth edition of this hugely popular regatta will feature classes for 44-46'
series production boats (minimum 4 produced) with a maximum IRC rating of 1.240
and a max SPA of 181.5 sq meters, the J/111 Class, the J/109 Class, the Quarter
Ton Class and the Laser SB3 Class. In addition it will provide the inshore element
for the 2012 GBR Team trials for the Brewin Dolphin Commodores' Cup (the offshore
element being the Royal Ocean Racing Club's Morgan Cup Race on 5 May). The RYA's
Selection Committee will be using the regatta to help them identify three teams
of three boats with IRC Endorsed ratings of between 1.020 and 1.230 with the proviso
that only one boat in the team may rate 1.150 or above. Full details of the RYA's
selection procedure can be found at the RYA's Web Site.
Racing will take place on two separate courses in the central Solent with Class
0 (Commodores' Cup trialists), Class 1 (44-46') and the J/111s racing on one course
and the J/109s, Quarter Tonners and Laser SB3s on the other. The courses will be
predominantly laid windward leeward format with up to eight races scheduled over
the three days of racing.
Special rate block berthing has been arranged with Cowes Yacht Haven and entrant's
wishing to take advantage of this offer and reserve a berth should indicate their
requirements on the entry form.
Once again the Royal Corinthian Yacht Club is delighted to confirm that North Sails,
Boat Sales International and Musto will be supporting the Vice Admiral's Cup. Their
generous contribution is vital to the success of this event and the club is most
grateful for their ongoing involvement.
As always the Royal Corinthian will look forward to welcoming competitors après
sailing to relax at its delightful clubhouse which enjoys panoramic views across
the Solent. There will be a two-course steak barbeque supper at a cost of £15
per head on Friday 18 May and tickets for this should be reserved at the time of
entry. Dinner will also be available in the club on the Saturday evening of the
regatta by arrangement with the Steward. The prize giving will take place at the
Royal Corinthian Yacht Club as soon as possible after racing on Sunday 20th May.

The Royal Corinthian Yacht Club was founded at Erith, Kent in 1872. Over the years,
it operated from a number of locations but finally settled at Burnham-on-Crouch,
Essex where the 'Northern' branch of the Club continues to operate and prosper.
In 1948, the Club established it's 'Southern' branch at Cowes in the present Clubhouse.
The Cowes branch of the Club has over 800 Members. It's position, the style of
the Clubhouse and its grounds set it apart from the other Clubs in Cowes. It is
the favourite spot for relaxing after sailing, and its ambience has also helped
it be successful in attracting visiting yacht clubs and classes.
