Eurocat delivered some great results for the UK travellers.  Highlights were line honours for William Sunnocks/Andrew Sinclair for the Raid, with top 10 finishes for David White and Matt Young, too, in the F18 classifications.  Congratualtions should also go to UK sailor David Lloyd, who managed to win the Raid on handicap sailing his Dart 18.

The course racing had some very testing conditions - Tuesday had an average of 33Knts across the committee boat for the duration of the one race held!  5 UK boats made it in to the top 15... and all off the back of some enthusiastic preparation in the evenings, before racing!

This is now the permanent webpage for the Formula18 UK Class Association.  I am hoping that most of the problems have been resolved but it may that from time-to-time certain elements may not be functioning - this (I hope) will only be due to maintenance. I shall try and get these completed ASAP but please be try and be patient.

Welcome to the new Formula18 UK class association webpage.  Although published, the site is still in development, so if you require anything specific that you cannot find, then please visit the old site by clicking here.  Feel free to add this page to your favorites but it's hoped that we will be able to keep the same web address, so don't delete the other.

In the meantime, please visit the forum and register your details as i am sure the earlier we discover any problems, the better!  I apologise now to those that have recent/relative posts on the old forum but i have yet to find a way of migrating the old posts with the new forum... so you may have to post again on this one.
