2019 Hamble Classics at the RAF Yacht Club

We are very pleased to announce that this year the 2019 Hamble Classics Regatta is to be hosted by the Royal Air Force Yacht Club in Hamble on the weekend of 21-22 September.

After three years of the Hamble Classics being hosted at the Royal Southern Yacht Club we decided the time is right to ring the changes and involve one of the other yacht clubs and other businesses on the River Hamble, reflecting the true and inclusive spirit of the event as we always planned.

Both Vicki and I had always expressed that if this was going to be an event for the Hamble River that we undoubtedly needed to involve the other Hamble clubs and business community wherever and whenever possible. Our thanks go to the Royal Southern for their previous support and we look forward to working with them in future years.

The RAFYC is another superb Hamble yachting venue with excellent waterside facilities and an enthusiastic membership who are very keen to host our much acclaimed classic event. With walk on access to the MDL Port Hamble Marina, its own smaller section of the Prince Philip Yacht Haven, a launch service for river berthing and a spacious car park, the club is well placed to deliver the 2019 Hamble Classics Regatta to the high standard we have previously enjoyed.
