INTERESTED IN COMING TO BURTON WEEK BUT DON’T OWN A 12?
National 12’s have a competitive Combined Helm/crew weight range of between 16-23
stone and carrying around 10.4m2 sail area. If you are interested in competing at
BW 2014 but don’t own your own 12, why not firstly try contacting someone at your
local club who owns a Twelve. If they are not coming along you might well be able
to do a deal, or they might be able to point you to another local Twelve owner instead.
With the National 12 class being a development class and having a history dating
back over 75 years there are a wide range of designs. The fantastic thing about
the boat, is that whatever age or design of boat you sail, there is always someone
else to compete against at the event, you don’t necessarily need to be in the latest
t-foiling design to have a superb event.
