Toppers

We have a very healthy topper fleet sailing by juniors at SBSC, which can be seen by the numbers in the boat park
The Topper is a very robust boat. It was originally constructed in GRP but this was changed quite early on to an injection moulding construction. After well over 20 years of continuous production (approaching 50,000 boats!) it is the outstanding build quality, durability and innovative design features that have made the Topper one of the most popular boats in Britain. Capacity: one when racing but plenty of room for two when training.
We have regular events from May through to September, including training in May half term and a Cadet Week at end of August. A number of Cups are sailed for on the inland lakes, and this year we have 2 new cups for the juniors, which will be sailed on the sea.
Parents, (including non-sailing ones), are very welcome to come along and to learn to run races, help with safety boating and generally join in with the fun.
