Built for both racers and cruisers, the hardware we produce is relied upon by club sailors just as much as the best sailors in the world, competing in events such as the Olympics, the America's Cup, the Ocean Race or the club race on a Sunday morning.

Harken RS Sprints Regatta

To celebrate the start of a superb year of racing five RS classes are invited to the Harken RS Sprints Regatta hosted by the RS Class Association and Rutland Sailing Club 26th to 27th April 2025. The RS Class Association are thrilled to be working closely with Harken again. This event epitomises Harken's interest in supporting dinghy sailing from grassroots to world level.

The event entry list will feature sailors from right across the UK, from the newly welcomed member to the seasoned professional, in a wide variety of dinghies: both single and double handers, una and asymmetric rigs. The RS100, RS300, RS400, RS500, and RS Vareo fleets will be offered two days of great fleet racing with a delicious group evening meal on Saturday. This is a great opportunity to catch up with friends old and new and to win some lovely Harken prizes. So load up your road trailer and head to Rutland for a fantastic gathering.

All the information about the Harken RS Sprints Regatta and online entry can be found here: RS100, RS300, RS400, RS500, RS Vareo Harken RS Sprints Regatta 2025
