The 2017 GUL Mirror Dinghy World Championships will take place at Restronguet Sailing Club which is located near Falmouth in Corwall, United Kingdom. Restronguet Sailing Club has been established since 1933. The Club is situated a short distance from Mylor Yacht Harbour with its marina, boat repair and chandlery businesses, and offers superb sailing in the Carrick Roads (shown in the above photo).
The Club is pleased to be hosting the 2017 GUL Mirror Worlds & UK Nationals and looks forward to offering visiting Mirror sailors eight days of competitive sailing and a variety of après sail social events.
This area of Cornwall offers beautiful coastal scenery and attractions such as The Eden Project (approx 60 minutes drive from the Club) or the surfing mecca of Newquay (approx 50 minutes drive from the Club). There are some suggested accommodation links here.
