Just a reminder to those attending the Nationals

• In order to comply with Racing Rules of Sailing (RRS) rule 78.1, you have to have a measurement certificate for the boat with the correct owner's details on it (except Bronze & Regatta fleet).
• Both helm & crew need to be a member of the UK Class Association
• You need to have sails that carry a certification mark (except Bronze & Regatta fleet)
• The boat's buoyancy needs to have been tested or inspected within the last 12 months (except Bronze & Regatta fleet). Steve Bland has kindly agreed to help me with buoyancy tests for the untested again this year, but it would be helpful if you came with it already done, or at least checked that it will pass (no leaks, no missing 'O' rings,......etc.)

Just a reminder that the £125 'Early entry' for the 2023 Mirror Nationals at Brightlingsea is only available until Sunday 30th April, after that the entry fee increases to £175. Online booking is on the Brightlingsea SC website.

The AGM of the Mirror Class Association will take place on Thursday 1st June at 18:00 in a meeting room at Brightlingsea Sailing Club.

The NOR for the 2023 Mirror Nationals at Brightlingsea, 1st - 4th June has been published and can be downloaded via the link or from the Brightlingsea SC Mirror Nationals event page. Online entry is also open.
