The BBC 1 "One Show" team have been working on a piece about the Mirror dinghy over the past few months. It covers the social history of the boat, how it revolutionized popular sailing and some footage from the 2015 Mirror Nationals & Mirror Week at Abersoch. It was broadcast on Tuesday 24th November 2015 on BBC 1 at 7:00PM. After broadcast it will be available via the BBC iPlayer for a limited period of time.
As you can see, Rod Little has also put it on You Tube.
The UK Mirror Class Association (MCA) is largely funded by subscriptions from members and if you have not already paid, they are now due for 2015.
Membership is important:
For the 2015 season you can pay your MCA membership online using a membership system from SailScore.
After six weeks of racing hosted by the award-winning online sailboat racing and training game, SailX, the Mirror class has finished in the Top-10 of the "RYA Volvo Dinghy Show SailX Championships 2012", finishing in 6th place overall in the UK class ranking.
The 'Live Finals' will take place at 15:15 sharp on both days of the RYA Volvo Dinghy Show (Sat and Sun) on the Volvo Main Stage and will last approximately one hour (5-race fleet regatta with one discard). Racing will be on display on the big screen - making it one of the Show's major highlights.
There is an update on progress and arrangments for the SailX Championship 2012 finals during the dinghy show here. Great to see Mirrors in the top 10 !
