Vintage PY
Hi All
Can anyone provide me with an updated definition of a vintage Solo for the 2026 season please.
Also do any clubs operate a ''vintage PY'' for mixed fleet racing.
Cheers Phil

Hi Phil,
Whilst the NoR has not as yet been published (to my knowledge), this is the wording that I'm expecting:
NSCA Vintage Championships Boat Qualification for 2026
The Championship is open to boats that are over 20 years old at 01-Jan-2026 with a registered hull number below 4660 as per the listing on the Dutch database. Additionally, boats with sail number above 4000 must have wooden hull construction.
Here at Leigh-on-Sea, we don't operate a 'Vintage PY'. This is generally not a problem as we operate a 'Sub 4000' vintage fleet with separate start for club racing. This topic has been much debated over the years within our club, but conclusion is to stick with the single Solo PY for handicap racing.
