RYA Dinghy Show - Safety boat competition 2016 entries open now!

by RYA on 9 Apr 2015 Following the resounding success of the 2014/15 competition the RYA Suzuki Dinghy Show and Suzuki Marine are delighted to announce that they will once again be running the Safety Boat Package competition, offering you the chance to win a brand new Suzuki powered Rigiflex safety boat for your club, worth over £4,500 (RRP).

Open now, the competition to win the Rigiflex Newmatic 360 powered by a Suzuki DF9.9A engine, runs until 31 January 2016 when the winner will be announced and invited, with their family, to the RYA Suzuki Dinghy Show 2016, held at Alexandra Palace over the weekend of 05-06 March, as special VIP guests of Suzuki and the RYA Suzuki Dinghy Show to collect their prize.

“The competition proved extremely popular with over 4,500 people taking part last year, so it seemed only fitting to do it again”, commented Charlotte Pearson, RYA Shows Co-ordinator.
Stephen Wilson, commodore of Greenwich Yacht Club who will benefit from the safety boat package thanks to winner Les McKee commented: “We will be putting the new safety boat to good use at the club; supporting club activities, training, racing, laying marks etc. Having this sturdy and reliable boat package will come in very handy.”

The Rigiflex Newmatic 360 is one of the most popular club safety boats on the market and when combined with the Suzuki DF9.9A is a very robust and durable package and makes up one of the three safety boat packages from Suzuki Marine developed by Suzuki in partnership with Ribcraft and Rigiflex, and in conjunction with the RYA, offering clubs standard packages that will cater for the needs of most clubs and training centres.

Alongside the inland/inshore Rigiflex, there is also a 4.8m inshore RIB and a 5.85m coastal RIB so that there is a safety boat package to suit most club locations.
