The International 505 Class European Championship typically attracts around 100 entries and is held bi-annually when the Class World Championship is held outside Europe. As Covid-19 travel restrictions ease, the European Championship in Weymouth will be a welcome major open event for sailors from around the world before the World Championship in Bermuda from 27 Oct - 5 November.
