I want to share this message from Michael Quirk, International Class President regarding 2026 Worlds. Hope this broadens the appeal to more teams. Please respond to me or Michael Quirk
Tim Murphy
President, International 505 Class, American Section
“World Championship in Hayling Island UK” .
The Class, international and national, with expected cash sponsor support, will underwrite empty container spots. This means the cost for each boat is a known factor that won't change if the container isn't full.
Can I get a show of digital hands who would consider going if the container cost is manageable. Hayling has great sailing and great club facilities.
Answer here, or DM me.
