| The Arrow Trophy is an open sailing competition between independent schools that can put together a team of former pupils, raced as an annual weekend regatta in one-design yachts. The 2012 event will be again organised on the challenging waters of The Solent, and will be the second to be aboard Sunsail's new fleet of F40 yachts. The yachts are collected from Port Solent (Portsmouth) on Friday, and sailed, or motored, over to Cowes Yacht Haven. The race format is short fleet racing on Saturday, finishing up in Cowes late afternoon, followed by the Arrow Trophy Dinner at the Royal Corinthian Yacht Club. The top four teams from the fleet races then go into a series of match races on the Sunday to determine the overall winner, whilst the remaining competitors fleet race to determine the winner of the Charterhouse Bowl. In total, there are five beautiful trophies to be won. Most crews choose to sleep onboard the yachts, but there are rooms available at the various Cowes yacht clubs and B&Bs and links are supplied on the entry form. |
