RFYC has  many different types of dinghies which race.  Racing is normally a mixture of classes, although some trophies are for specific types of boats.  Most racing is carried out under the Average Lap system which allows both Fast and Slow handicap boats to race together.

Many Members also sail Keelboats, both racing locally and taking part in passages and musters.

National 18

The Club’s most long standing and numerous class is the National 18ft Dinghy.  Every 4 years, RFYC plays host to the British and Irish National 18ft Championships, with entrants from Ireland, England, the Isle of Man and Scotland.
