With over 100 boats and around 130 sailors aged between 8 and 18 yrs, this is the second year the club will be hosting this large event. The funding will go towards safety cover vessels and trophies for the prize giving.

Lisa Evans will be representing Wales in the veteran Commonwealth games, being held in Jersey in July. Lisa was awarded funding through the CSC towards her travel and accommodation costs. She will be joining competitors from across Wales and hopes to move up the British rankings for both team and individual performances.

Chairman of the CSC and Deputy Harbourmaster Bill Hirst said of the Committee "It is fantastic that we are able to support such a range of local organisations and events. We are committed to supporting the local community and these allocations of funding enable us to assist groups in the fantastic work they are doing."
