Burnham Week 2021

Are you ready – we are delighted to announce that today marks the opening of entries for Burnham Week 2021. We know you are wanting to join Burnham Week again and we are very much looking forward to welcoming you all - previous and new competitors alike - to Burnham Week 2021.

Flexibility is a common request from competitors, and we are setting up to do just that. First starts will be at midday - some fleets are looking for one start each day and other fleets are asking if they can have two starts each day midweek. The answer is: Yes, you can! - we are going to be flexible and provide the racing each fleet is aiming for.

Racing is organised by Burnham Week on behalf of Burnham Sailing Club, Royal Burnham Yacht Club and Royal Corinthian Yacht Club. Members from the three clubs working together on the Race Committee to provide great courses, with starts at Pile House and the BSC.

Please look at the website for full details: www.burnhamweek.com Entry forms can be found at http://www.burnhamweek.com/fleets/
