Eight races throughout the summer
The club runs a Duo (double-handed) Series on various Saturdays from May to September. The ever-popular Duo Series is considered to be the most interesting and challenging race series based in the Western Solent. The series involves exciting, varied and highly competitive races, including to the Eastern Solent, Christchurch Bay and around the Island. Boats can be raced single or double-handed, on a range of keelboats.
A series of eight races throughout the season from May to September, with IRC and Lymington Adjusted Handicap fleets, and open to all boats and skippers. Long courses are set from near the Lymington River entrance, heading east or west taking advantage of the tidal flows and changes, typically of 3 hours duration heading beyond Cowes to the east or out through the Hurst Narrows into Christchurch Bay to the west, and finishing at the RLymYC Starting Platform. We also have a most socially acceptable Around The Island race from Lymington when conditions allow.
Dates for this year’s races:
Race 1: Saturday 11th May
Race 2: Saturday 1st June
Race 3: Saturday 29th June
Race 4: Saturday 20th July

“Great night last night in particular the junior supper was a huge hit. Lots of great feedback on the lasagna, a good-sized portion, tasted delicious and well presented. Please can you pass on to the chef and his team!”
“On 3rd August we held our Red Fox Annual General Meeting and Annual Dinner at the Royal Lymington Yacht Club. The whole event was a great success. Within days of appointing a new chef you produced an excellent menu for the dinner and arranged facilities for our AGM. You and your staff were always very efficient and friendly, and it all made for a very enjoyable evening. We showed our appreciation by doubling the normal gratuity.”
“We had an excellent Sunday lunch. Please warmly congratulate Darren, your new chef!”
“On behalf of myself and my family, we just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone involved in my father’s wake on Friday. It was utterly perfect, and I truly think he would have loved it. Please pass on our thanks to the lovely staff and yourself who made it run so smoothly. The weather was simply stunning, and the drinks went down a little too nicely!”
“The Burns Night was brilliant! Many thanks to yourself and the team for doing a huge amount of work to make it a great success! Everything was perfect!”
“I thought I would drop you a line to say 4 of us had very delicious sandwiches at the Club on Friday lunchtime. They were perfect for what we required – having popped into the Club for a glass of wine and a quick bite to eat.”
