The Tattinger Regatta is a popular and successful fixture in the South Coast’s racing calendar. Running over three days, it offers fun on and off the water.
Friday involves a training day followed by a champagne reception ahead of 2 days of races. On Saturday, all boats now have a minimum of two races followed by a single race on Sunday with classes representing an historic timeline of yachting evolution from X One Design, Yarmouth One Design and IRC Classic Cruisers and IRC Swan, through to modern IRC racing divisions. Saturday’s racing culminates in the social highlight of the weekend – held in the grounds of a landmark, waterfront property adjacent to the RSYC. The legendary Towers Party includes food, drink, music and a spectacular fireworks display.
The enduring popularity of The Tattinger RSYC Regatta is easy to define: a diverse fleet and well-organised racing; onshore entertainment with a broad appeal and an informal atmosphere all set against a stunning backdrop.
