Welcome to Comet Class Association
The Comet web site aims to give you information on the fast, friendly and fun single handed sailing dinghy, the Comet.
The Comet Class Association organises over 20 events each year. Although these are open to all Comet owners and helms, only members of the association are eligible to qualify for the various travellers trophies and enter the 2 championship events.
The class association also publishes a newsletter at regular intervals throughout the year. Each issue includes reports on the open meetings and championships, information about forthcoming events, lots of Comet tips and rules updates.
Information about our open events and championships can be found on the calendar.
The Very Latest News
Hopefully the Results table is now complete – if you know different please get in touch.
SHSC Open won by – guess who – yes you are right – Chris Hatton.
Bob Dodds needed a boot extension to hold all of the Trophies that he had accumulated over the season.
Next year’s calendar is filling out nicely, as soon as it is confirmed it will be posted on the website.
Plans for the Dinghy show are underway, Chris Robinson would like some volunteers to ‘person’ our stand.
Perihelion 2019
This year we have had 1 extremely thin edition and 2 fat editions of Perihelion – the next edition is on my jobs to do list for the very near future – definitely before Christmas, if the print company can cope.
To spread the load next year I have decided that there will not be an ‘over the winter’ edition as very little happens other than the dinghy show but 3 medium editions reflecting roughly one third of the Open calendar. Therefore the 2019 Calendar will not be posted out as in previous years, all being well it will be e-mailed to you. It is nearly complete. Once it is Paul WILL be uploading it into its usual position.
