2017 Annual Bermuda ‘Round the Sound’ Seagull 40 Race

12pm start, Sunday July 16th 2017
This is a kids & family race intended to get those too young for RISR interested and involved in British Seagulls and basic boat building. We’re looking to keep things simple and fun, so, please throw your British Seagull 40 on anything you’ve got and come out and support it this Sunday.

C class (Racing) – at least 2 children under the age of 16 (1 must be aged 12 or older to operate the engine): stitch & glue wooden boat built from 2 (or less) sheets of plywood (deck & transom not included).
Basic Rules:
Only British Seagull 40 series engines are to be used (40 plus, 40 minus, Featherweight)
Seagull 40’s for class A & B, please, no modification, no porting, all Seagull 40 parts above & below waterline. This is a kids & family race intended to get those too young for RISR interested and involved.
Seagull 40’s for Class C, porting allowed, all Seagull 40 parts above & below waterline.
Boat Classes & Engine specs will be subject to ‘tuning’ as the race continues year to year – but we want to keep it simple & fun for kids. Suggestions welcome (help with crash-boating, too).
