FM Colander Cup - 10th May 2025
FM sailing have come up with an incentive to get some of the older boats in dinghy parks out sailing and racing again. We are proposing to run a one day event next year called the ‘FM Sailing Colander Cup’. This trophy will be purely for boats with a value of under £300.
The event is aimed at bringing old boats back to life in a ‘Top Gear’ challenge style. The event is to be casual, relaxed, cheap & cheerful, and most of all fun and welcoming for everyone wishing to take part. After entry, where possible we will be asking for proof of boat value, such as a screen shot of the original boat advert or a signed written receipt.
For the event to be a success and fair, there will be a sense of ‘goodwill’ involved and ‘spirit of the event’ by competitors and organisers. Anyone suspected of not complying with the £300 purchase price and not able to supply any proof in this situation will not be eligible for the cash prize or trophy, but will still be allowed to participate.
