News - 25/02/15

There is not long to go until the sailing season starts again and so race mark designations for 2015 have now been published by the Solent Cruising & Racing Association (SCRA). 

As usual, there are a number of new names and changes in the co-ordinates for certain navigation marks. The list of marks is published in Zones, and also as an alphabetical version so that a known buoy name can be located. PDF downloads are now available on the CHC website; visit our new section on Solent Racing Marks. 

For those of you who have ever wondered what happens to the race marks during the winter, they are all stored at CHC’s Kingston Marine Services site in East Cowes before being re-painted for the new year. Over the coming days you may well spot CHC’s Multi-Cat Seaclear laying the marks out in the Solent for the season ahead.

We wish you all safe and fun racing for 2015!
