" The X Class offers more high quality racing opportunities than any other dayboat class"

There are full racing programmes, of typically 50 to 60 races per season, for up to 140 boats in six locations (or divisions) around the Solent area:-

Cowes • Hamble • Itchenor • Lymington • Parkstone • Yarmouth

" The quality of Club racing is the key to the success of the X Class"

Our annual championships are held during Cowes Week and in recent years have attracted more than 80 X boats (88 in 2010). It is anticipated that in 2011 this will rise to 100 entries. Please come and join us for THE event of 2011. Crews are always in demand and for those wanting to helm there are a handful of boats for sale - but it is unlikely that these will be around for long.

Welcome to the website of the Class Association which manages the affairs of the whole Class. The site provides plenty of information with links to each of the Divisions. If more information is required then contact information is available.
