The Osprey Class Association are delighted to announce a new headline sponsor. In an arrangement agreed at the RYA Dinghy and Watersports Show Craftinsure will become the Osprey Class preferred insurer.

This agreement with one of the UK's major insurance providers for small boats will ensure that members of the Osprey Class Association will be able to access first class insurance cover for their boats while the Class Association will use the agreement to enhance the experience for their members at the National Championships and major open meetings.

The Osprey Class Association and Craftinsure look forward to a long and fruitful association.
