Gunfleet Sailing Club invites all sailors to feel the taste of salt water on their lips...

Gunfleet’s Regatta, sponsored by Orsted, and by Odiin, is a two day affair, on Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd July, with a difference! The racing is self-contained on each day so you can pick a single day and come home with a trophy, or two! Or you can enjoy the full weekend.

Saturday sees three races, with the best two out of three results counting to your overall position, and the winner takes home the Diamond Jubilee Trophy.
