The inaugural WATH regatta was held in 2019 and was hosted by the NYC. WATH is a sailing regatta with women helming dinghies and keelboats and encourages women who may not normally helm to step up and make the move from crew to helm over this weekend. The event is open to all female helms from teens to seniors. Prizes will be awarded for Under-25s, over 60s, and by class, and includes the coveted prize of the Roy Family Perpetual Trophy for the best team performance. 2024 will be the third occasion that the NYC will host the WATH regatta, reinforcing the Club’s reputation as a supporter and promoter of women in sailing
Please get in touch with the National YC in relation to chartering club boats for the event and if there are people looking to crew on a boat over the weekend, we will try to match you up with a dingy or yacht relevant to your experience.
Please contact the office in the NYC, the website and Rosemary Cadogan Vice Commodore NYC for further information.
