The Traveller Series and 2020 Event Calendar is now live and published.

2019 was a vintage year for the Supernova Class, with so many great event venues and good turnouts at the best of them.

Next year the emphasis is on keeping the most popular venues so there are fewer but bigger events, so we hope to see even more Supernova sailors on the Noble Marine Traveller circuit in 2020 with generally better event turnouts.

Many thanks to the engagement of some of our existing and, new to the class, top flight sailors, the Noble Marine Traveller Series is gaining recognition as a high quality, prestigious Championship of growing significance.

The Events Calendar 2020 is complete, and the exciting program, which includes a Sea Championship at Exe SC with sea race coaching, is now live on the website.

2020 Supernova dinghy class racing begins here; at one of the best events in the year, at one of the best sailing clubs in the UK. Lots of prizes, top class racing for all, great food (including bacon butties after registration), and the bar will be open after the event for prize giving.

The 2020 Noble Marine Traveller Series sets sail on the 14th March at Cotswold Sailing Club.

A great venue and the home club of Cliff (how many? ) Milliner, 2019 (etc) National Champion, and Gavin Young, 2019 Traveller Series Champion, and so there could be some fantastic competition to be had here, if you dare challenge for it!

Last year we had 34 boats and this year the Superati, so keen for a serious test of top flight sailing skill, will no doubt make it even better, so let's hope the forecast is good.

Bring your own Apres Sail poisons but be assured, the welcome, food and refreshment at the club, will be second to none.

The club can be open for Friday night campervan and camping / boat drop off arrivals; please direct your access queries to: Cliff Milliner 07899 940872 Cliff_Milliner@hotmail.com

The club is 10 minutes away from The Cotswolds so consider combining a top sailing event with sight-seeing in one of the UKs most picturesque locations. Cirencester is a wonderful local town, well worth visiting by day or night!

My Digs are booked; can't wait to see you all there.

The first day of the Noble Marine Travellers Trophy 'Southern Blast' this year again takes place at the well equipped and historic South Eastern venue of Bough Beech SC.

Many visitors were blown away by the picturesque approach to this magnificent sailing lake in 2019; and even more impressed by the club's excellent facilities and fabulous sailing water.

The Supernovas are just one fleet of many major classes to be hosted at this iconic club in 2020.

Both the history of the club and expertise of the hosting team and the warm welcome at Bough Beech SC guarantees this event is well worth a visit from all the Supernova travelling fleet.

It is also an ideal base camp for an epic sail racing weekend offering camping on the Friday evening and Saturday night, before the leg up to Bartley SC in the South Midlands on Sunday morning.

To ensure access and book your pitch please contact Chris Watts at chris.watts14@btopenworld.com

The second day of the Noble Marine Traveller Series 'Southern Blast' 2020 returns to Bartley SC's big pot in the South Midlands.

The first of the Peaks Double 2020 Traveller is hosted at the picturesque Combs Sailing Club.

The club launched 9 boats into the 21 boat strong fleet in 2019, providing epic heavy wind competition, in which the top local sailors gave a good account, although Gavin Young came through on top. 

The local area is visually stunning and beautiful and rewards those willing to explore. 

Althogether a 'too good to miss' venue.

Camping is available at Combs on the Friday evening and Saturday night, so kindly providing the camping base for the whole weekend for travellers.

Competitors wishing to camp on Friday night should check back here in due course to discover how to arrange an access time.

The club will be providing catering on Saturday morning and Lunch.

The club does not have bar facilities but the Beehive pub, just a short walk to nearby Combs is recommended for drinks and evening meals and was really well appreciated by our members in 2019.

Day 2 of The Peaks Double is a short hop from Combs SC. 

Carsington Water is a fabulous expansive lake, which combines with the top class facilities to guarantee fabulous competition and a great turnout, with 27 boats in 2019.

And thanks to Comb SC's friendly base welcome, it will hopefully be an even bigger event this year. 

Please check out the 2019 LLangorse SC Traveller report and then you will no doubt sign up to the 2020 event!

The club and the locale has everything you could be looking for for a fantastic weekend away sailing.

The last Supernova Nationals at Plas Heli took place in 2018 and the venue was fantastic.

Inland pot sail training has been organised in 2020 to be held at Girton SC, one of the trickiest venues on the Supernova circuit.

We all know, and respect that sea sailing is the pinnacle of our sport; however, 13 of the 15 2020 venues are Inland lakes.

So Alistair Goodwin has agreed to coach the fleet in the dark arts of inland Lake sailing.

This is just as well because the fleet moves on to Attenborough SC on the Sunday.

More on Attenborough in their event teaser but suffice to say, It is the utmost inland challenge!

The Midlands Double first cut takes place at Girton Sailing Club. 

A warm welcome and good competition is assured at this unusually shaped and challenging lake.

The racing support team at Girton are passionate about our sport, so those in the fleet who make the effort are sure to enjoy themselves. Camping is available for free (included in the event fees) on site from the evening of Thursday 13th onwards.

Supernova sailors arriving for the Friday training are welcome to take part in the club Friday night Pursuit race sailing, which may help in familiarizing keen sailors with the Girton wind shifts.
