Pendennis Cup
The Pendennis Cup team have announced their intention to hold the 2nd & 3rd editions of the Pendennis Cup Sailing Regatta in 2010 and in the Olympic year 2012. The dates for the 2010 regatta are 9th – 14th August and provisional plans for 2012 are to hold the regatta in early summer, the racing will be managed by the Port of Falmouth Sailing Association and the Royal Cornwall Yacht Club.
Following on from the success of the 2008 regatta, the two events will have a full entertainments programme that will complement the 5 days of competitive racing out on the waters of Falmouth Bay – giving owners and crews a chance to enjoy a “proper Cornish experience” and allowing them to enjoy Falmouth and its beautiful surroundings.
The five days of competitive racing during the Pendennis Cup will be complimented by a shore side entertainments programme allowing Owner’s, Captains, Crew and our event sponsors to enjoy the delights of our home port of Falmouth.
