LOMO is excited to announce its support for the upcoming LOMO Blaze Inland Championships 2024.
Taking place at The Chase SC on October 12th and 13th, this prestigious event will see the best Blaze sailors from across the country compete for the coveted championship AND Traveller Series titles.
The Blaze Class is renowned for its thrilling racing and competitive spirit, and the Blaze Inlands Championships are always a highlight of the sailing calendar. With a blend of experienced racers and rising stars, the competition promises to be fierce.
Key Highlights of the Event:
- Return to Chase Water: The event will take place at Chase Water, a venue that has not hosted the Inlands since 2019. The challenging conditions and picturesque scenery make it a perfect setting for this prestigious competition.
- Top Contenders: Many top-ranked sailors have already thrown their hats in to compete having consistently demonstrated their skill and determination throughout the year. But who is the season’s best? The gauntlet is down!
- LOMO Sponsorship: LOMO is proud to play our part in the event, donating the coveted LOMO Blaze Expedition Holdalls as top prizes, as well as rewarding good effort down the fleet with plenty more high-quality kit.
- Travellers Series: The Inland Championships are the final event in the Travellers Series, a series of six Blaze Class events (three to count). The overall winner of the series will be determined based on their performance throughout the year.
We look forward to a fantastic weekend of racing and celebrating the achievements of the Blaze Class.
