The 18ft Skiff is making a welcome return to the Dinghy Sailing show this year. Look out for the class on stand C6 in the Great Hall where the 2005 & 2006 National and Grand Prix winning Radii will be on display (pictured here).

Andy Richards and his crew will be making an appearance on Sunday afternoon to answer any questions about their boat.

Also on the stand you can find details of a packed 2007 UK and European sailing circuit and news of how the British teams fared at the recent JJ Giltinan Championships, along with a display of spectacular skiff photographs by Peter Danby and Christophe Favreau’s shots from the Giltinan.

Look for the stand under the tallest mast in the hall.

Hope to see you there!
