The full list of speakers and talks for the virtual 2021 show will be announced soon!
Main Stage and Knowledge Zone
On the Main Stage and Knowledge Zone, there will be live talks and coaching sessions from Dinghy Show regulars including Mark Rushall talking tactics as well as new rules. Michael McNamara will be back to show us how to rig various boats for different conditions and Ian Walker, Steve Cockerill and Roger Barnes will also be there along with new speakers too.
Dinghy historian Dougal Henshall will be talking about 'The Seven Ages of Dinghies' and will go all the way back to the first
ever Show in 1952, selecting one boat per decade
that can be seen to have helped define that time in the development
of our sport. You can have your say too and join the live debate.
There will be interviews with Olympic sailors and dinghy sailing adventurers as well as the usual award presentations including the RYA and Yachts & Yachting Club of the Year Award supported by Gallagher.
The final of the RYA eSailing Winter Club Championships will also be streamed live at the show.
