The International One Design (IOD) is a classic racing sloop with 12 active fleets in five countries. The International One-Design Class was conceived to build, maintain and race a fleet of "One-Design Yachts, distinctive in appearance and performance, using one-design racing, and especially to develop the competitive capacities of both helmsmen and crews under the fairest and most equal conditions." The design of the International One-Design was inspired by a Six Metre created by the famous Norwegian architect and builder Bjarne Aas, in 1935.

Times change and all other things too. In Solent racing terms we have seen many things come and go. Long offshore races have been supplanted by shorter courses, mainly to cross Channel destinations. Solent races around fixed marks fell from favour in the face of the rise of the windward leeward. Many traditional Club Regatta weekends have seen entries dwindle. What is next? This Association has been formed to assist in providing the best possible racing in the Solent area, for owners and crews of IRC rated yachts. On this site you will be able to find program information for the IRC Solent Series, along with dates of most other principal IRC events. We hope you will find the site useful and informative.

UK ISO Class Association. The ISO, as a sailing class, falls into the category of racing skiffs. It is a 2 person dinghy that is equipped with a single trapeze and asymmetrical spinnaker. It is a fast, high-performance racing dinghy that is a lot of fun to sail and compete in. It is often equipped with detachable wings which give it some versatility as the wings can help lighter crews gain better balance over the boat but can be removed for heavier crews. The ISO is designed for crew weights ranging from 275 lbs to 365 lbs. It can be sailed by sailors of different ability and is a good boat to gain some sailing experience in. The ISO is a popular boat for competitive sailing, partly because of its reasonable cost in comparison to other racing boats.

The Official Website of the J Class Association. The J Class has its roots in the oldest sporting race in the world, The America's Cup. Although they became recognised the most beautiful yacht design in the World, only 10 J Class yachts were ever built - 6 in the USA and 4 in the UK. Most of these competed in trials for the America's Cup, or competed in the Cup itself. The most common adjective that is used by those who have sailed on the existing J's is the word 'awesome'. The immense sail area and sheer power cannot easily be described.

Finding a sailboat to motivate and sustain participation by the entire family is no easy task. Research shows that active sailing families divide 76 days/yr. on the water equally between daysailing, cruising and racing. The ideal boat will be good for all these activities, while crewed by people of all age and experience levels. Too large a boat can be intimidating. A slow boat will eventually turn off the young. A racing boat may not be suitable for serving a nice meal or curling up with a good book. It seems the ads claim every boat to be a "racer-cruiser." Few really are. Even fewer would get the vote of each family member. We know there’s only one that will and has for nearly two decades: The J/30.

Innovative from the very start, the design concept was for 2 or 3 crew sailing a fast, easily driven hull, offering exhilarating sailing. It had to be physically easy to sail and stayed upright.

Initially promoted and sold by RS the K6 is now a standalone class built and supplied by Rondar Boats. Edington, Westbury, Wiltshire UK
