NB: subject to change so check back - includes events planned to be attended by the British 6mR Fleet and provided to help with long-term planning
Links connect either to a summary page for the event or to the organiser's web site.
NOTE: since the clubs charge for running our events, it is important that those intending to join any event give plenty of notice (at least a month) so that the entry fee can be set accordingly and cancellations will incur a charge. Also, it would be helpful to indicate if a support boat is being brought, since that will assist organising adequate resources for tows and determine the need to arrange additional moorings.
