The Royal Southern Summer Series is our flagship racing series and this year included world class racing for a variety of classes, and unforgettable entertainment ashore including a Right Royal Weekend and a star studded band night.

The Summer Series consists of four open racing events held in The Solent with social events at the Royal Southern’s extensive clubhouse on the Hamble River. Over 80 teams are expected for each regatta with hundreds of sailors taking part. Classes include J/70, SB20, RS Elite, Cape 31, HP30, J/111s, Performance 40 and IRC Classes. Each regatta will have its own class prizes and social events. Regatta supporters include North Sails, Champagne Charles Heidsieck and Salcombe Gin.

The Royal Southern Annual Prize Giving will be held in November 2023 with major prizes for the Summer Series. The Royal Southern Summer Series encapsulate the ethos of the Royal Southern Yacht Club – great racing on the water and huge fun ashore.
