Henri Lloyd Falmouth Week has grown into one of the largest sailing regatta's in the south west with more than 300 yachts racing over eight days, and a lively programme of shoreside events.
Dates for Falmouth Week 2012 are Saturday 11th August to Sunday 19th August.
We would like to thank everyone for making Henri Lloyd Falmouth Week 2011 such a success especially the Port of Falmouth Sailing Association & all the yachts clubs, plus the Henri Lloyd Falmouth Week Shore-side commitee. It must also be said that without the sponsors and partners the week would simply not go ahead. If you would like to be involved in 2012 as sponsor or partner please enquire via the contact page above. Over the coming weeks we will be adding photos and video of 2011 so check back here for a reminder of the week.
2011 started with the Hayes Parsons Falmouth Classics, this was 100 classic yachts racing in Carrick Roads and Falmouth Bay. It was followed by six days of match racing for keelboats, traditional craft and dinghies in the waters of Falmouth Bay, the Carrick Roads and the harbour. Wednesday was Golder Associates Champagne Day, with the Champagne Race race for IRC and PY 1&2 yachts and MOCRA multihulls with a long coastal course, whilst smaller boats race in the Carrick Roads. All class winners received a champagne prize and special prizes for dinghies.
The best vantage points for viewing the sailing are: Pendennis and St Mawes Castles, St Anthony Head, Castle Drive and Pendennis Point, Trefusis Point and Flushing. To view the dinghys, walk from Mylor Yacht Harbour towards Restronguet Sailing Club.
