H-boat Nordics at Hankø Race Week
The H-boat Nordic Championship 2014 will be held at the Hankø Race Week (HRW), june 26-29. HRW is a great sailing event, arranged at Hankø just outside Fredrikstad, Norway – about 50 km north of Strömstad and 200 km north of Göteborg.
At HRW several hundred sailors, across eight one-design classes, meet for racing at one of the fines racing arenas in Norway. The host, the Royal Norwegian Yacht Club and Hankø Yacht Club, are highly experienced and provide for great experiences both at the water and during social events in the evenings.
HRW runs for four days (Thusrday to Sunday). However, only the three last days (Friday – Sunday) will count as the Nordics. This to make it easier for sailors who may not be able to sail for four days. The Thursday sailing will then have the characteristic of tune-up for the Nordics as well as there will be a separate list for all four days of HRW.
We hope that as many H-boat sailors as possible are able to participate in this year’s Nordics. Make a note of the event in your calendar today, and we will get back to you with more information. There will also be made more information available at the HRW webpage http://kongelignorskseilforening.no/index.php/hrw
