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.

2019 AGM
All of the documents relating to this year’s AGM at Fishers Green are in the ‘Member’s Area’.
STOP PRESS
Many thanks to Chris Robinson – hopefully the FPSC results are now correct.
Apologies
There’s no escaping it, there is a GLARING error in Perihelion 127 that should be dropping through your mail box in the next few days. There are no prizes for spotting it but if you can PROVE that you haven’t spotted it then I will buy you a pint or G+T etc at the Nationals. (Not having received P127 is not valid proof!)
Nationals News
The team at Fishers Green have been hard at work getting ready for our National Championships.
Please note that early entry is NOT required but they would welcome notification of your intention to enter.
