As the year draws to an end and the UK OK Dinghy fleet prepare for the forthcoming World Championships at Lyme Regis in June, it's good to look back on a fine 2022 season with our own Charlie Cumbley winning the OK Dinghy crown and so going into Lyme Regis as the reigning World Champion.

With competitors including Jim Hunt and Nick Craig entered, who have both won the OK Dinghy World Championships in recent years, along with several other UK sailors who could win on their day, it's going to be a strong home fleet that heads out from Lyme Regis harbour in June to try and retain the crown. It's not too late to get a boat and an entry to what must be one of the top World dinghy Championships to take part in.

All this and lots more in the review which is available online at sway.office.com/Sc95BRN32jUj9UtP?ref=Link
