We are pleased to announce that the Wayfarer World Championships will be held at the Olympic Games venue, the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy in Dorset.
The Championships will run from 19th 23rd July 2010. There will be no specific qualification criteria for this World Championships to encourage visitors from around the UK and from the key countries where Wayfarers are established including USA, Canada, Denmark, South Africa, Ireland and the Netherlands.
The event will feature our builder, Hartley Laminates, as principal sponsor. However we would appreciate support from other suppliers who wish to be associated with this major event in the Wayfarer calendar. The sponsorship package will include:
Inclusion in advance publicity leaflets, website and Wayfarer News
Inclusion in Press Releases
Display of posters/banners during the event
The above will be offered to all suppliers in return for a contribution of £500 to UKWA.
If you would be more interested in providing prizes rather than cash, we would also welcome appropriate contributions.
To ensure you are included in advance publicity, we would appreciate confirmation of your interest by the 20th November 2009. Please respond to the Publicity Office using the contact form;

Following the decision by Firth Insurance to relinquish administration of the Wayfarer insurance scheme after running it very successfully for the past five years, Craftinsure.com has agreed to continue the scheme on very similar terms with effect from 1st April 2009.
Craftinsure is the UK’s leading on line boat insurer, established in 2001. Whilst designed to provide a quick and easy way to insure boats over the internet, there is also a help line (0845 2607 888) providing access to a team of specialist staff, most of whom are also keen sailors.
The company already has well established links with a number of other dinghy classes including Topper for whom they have provided the official ITCA scheme for several years. As all Craftinsure policies are underwritten by Navigators & General, the new arrangement also maintains UKWA’s long association with N&G.
For more information about Craftinsure, you can log on to www.craftinsure.com or www.craftinsure.ie if based in the Republic of Ireland.
Craftinsure will be contacting members currently insured through the scheme between 3 and 4 weeks before their policy falls due for renewal to advise renewal terms and set up a new policy assuming cover is still required. The process should only take a couple of minutes over the telephone, and there will be no paper work involved. Members will need to be able to provide an email address (either their own or a close relative or friend) in order to obtain the full benefit of the UKWA scheme terms.
Policies will start to be transferred to the new scheme as they fall due for renewal from 1st April 2009. Any enquiries relating to policies before they renew should still be referred to Firth Insurance Services.
Key features of the UKWA Insurance Scheme with Craftinsure:
- Highly competitive premiums
- ‘New of old’ cover on parts, including sails and covers up to 3 years old.
- Underwritten by Navigators & General, part of Zurich Insurance plc.
- Extensions available for Wayfarers to be left on moorings (subject to details).
- Cover available for Wayfarers kept outside the UK or Ireland
- £3,000,000 Third Party cover (or €3,000,000 if based in Ireland).
- Contributions to UKWA funds for each Wayfarer insured with Craftinsure.
- 24 hour Claims Helpline, with facility to track claim progress on line.
- Instant quotations and cover available on line, or by calling 0845 2607 888.
So if you are not already insured through the UKWA insurance scheme, try calling Craftinsure when your policy comes up for renewal!
