This event just refers to the Reid Scott. Please register separately for the Beastie Tour. Reid Scott is a series of races held over two days. We plan to run at least two races each day. It is open to Cadets and Junior members: All entrants need to be at least 8 years old, and less than 25 years old on 31st August 2026. All those who wish to enter must be confident river sailors with their own boats (For BSC sailors this means you were in Tango or MG training groups at cadet week 2026, or have reached this level if you are now a young member or ex cadet). We anticipate that there will be the following classes: Optimists Topper / RS Tera RS Feva ILCA / Laser (all rigs) 420 / General handicap Subject to demand and the availability of coaches, we may run separate coached regatta fleets in the Optimist and Topper / RS Tera fleets, and/or provide on-the-water coaching in both regatta and main fleets. As always, we need adults to help this event run smoothly. We need people to help launch and recover boats, a bridge team, and crews for the safety boats. Entry fee for Visitors: £22 per boat.
