Entries are now open for the 2014 International Moth World Championship which takes place at Hayling Island Sailing Club 18th-25th July 2014. The International Moth UK and Open National Championship will take place at HISC on the 16th and 17th July 2014. Entry is open to all boats of the International Moth class.
The intention is to run the racing outside of Chichester Harbour from the west side of Hayling Bay however if conditions prevent this the racing will be run within Chichester Harbour at high tide which allows for a large race area with no risk of running aground.
The IMCA is very fortunate to have secured the services of Tim Hancock as Principal Race Officer. Tim is an International Race Officer and, amongst many other National and World Championships to his name, ran the Finn and Star course at the 2012 Olympic Games in Weymouth.
Hayling Island Sailing Club is one of the premier sailing clubs in the UK, occupying a magnificent site at the entrance to Chichester Harbour on the South Coast of England. It has hosted many Worlds Championships including the Laser Worlds in 2010 that Tom Slingsby of Australia (current Moth sailor) won. The clubhouse was rebuilt in 2003 with the help of UK Lottery Funding. HISC is an RYA Centre of Excellence.
