Britain has a rich heritage of success in the Finn at Olympic and World Championship levels, but the majority of the UK fleet is made up of Club and Masters sailors who enjoy racing Finns at all levels. There are great opportunities to race internationally at the Finn World Masters and the European Championships as well as the prestigious Gold Cup. All these events, together with the two main national events now count towards the Finn World Ranking, which has proved extremely popular with 1331 sailors from 40 countries competing.

Sail on Richard…
The Richard Blowman appeal – a huge thank you to all BFA members who have donated to the fund, we have now reached our goal and the boat has now been purchased for potential Finn sailors to try the boat and borrow for regattas. Please spread the word and invite any potential Finnsters at your club to have a sail in Finn-spiration – so far she has a 100% conversation rate. Any interested sailors should contact Mike DeCourcy in the first instance.
