Seahorse exclusive IRC editions

Details: Last Updated: Tuesday, 05 February 2019 17:41

As you may be aware, the RORC Rating Office has not produced a printed IRC Yearbook for 2019. The IRC Rules are available on the IRC website and are also printed in the 2019 RORC Notice of Race.

To replace the Yearbook, we are working with Seahorse Magazine to produce exclusive IRC editions of the magazine through 2019 which will be available online only for current IRC Members. These will include specific IRC content similar to that previously included in the Yearbook and we hope you find it informative and useful.

The first exclusive IRC edition of Seahorse is now available to holders of a current IRC certificate. Click the cover photo below to access this and future issues with your IRC certificate number and Seahorse code as shown at the bottom of your current certificate.

Spinlock continues GBR Championship support

Sailors in the UK are enjoying spring racing and looking forward to the summer season, including the varied selection of International Rating Certificate (IRC) Championships which will again be supported by hardware experts Spinlock, now in their 6th season as sponsor of IRC.

As well as enjoying the great racing and social programmes, competitors will be competing for IRC Champion status and the exciting Spinlock special prize package. James Hall, Spinlock Sales and Marketing Manager, is enthusiastic about the IRC Championships:

“Spinlock are pleased to support the IRC Championships again in 2018 and encourage competitive IRC racing around the regions. We are thrilled to provide a trophy, £250 Spinlock Voucher and a Deck Pack for each Championship winner.”

Regional IRC Championships are held all around the British coast from Scotland to the Channel Islands, as well as a specific event for Double Handed crews, providing a large variety of venues, racing conditions and social events to be enjoyed both on and off the water. Some events will incorporate other classes racing in IRC, for instance the HP30 class will hold its National Championship at Poole Regatta; Scottish Series is a major event in the RC35 annual class championship, and along with the Welsh National IRC Championship is also part of the Celtic Cup incorporating events in Wales, Scotland and Ireland.
