What's new for 2026
The 2026 hosting line-up welcomes two new faces with Jazz Turner and Rafferty Read joining the show team. Para inclusive sailor and show superfan Jazz wrote herself into the history books this year, becoming the first female and first disabled person to complete a solo non-stop and unassisted circumnavigation of the UK and Ireland. She'll be sharing her inspiring story as well as guiding you through all the action on the show's Sunsail Main Stage, while professional wingfoiler and Olympic foilboard commentator and presenter Rafferty will host the show's NextGen Zone.
A new feature for this year, the NextGen Zone is a vibrant space where younger sailors and riders can drop in for engaging sessions and workshops tailored to help grow their confidence, skills and ambitions on and around the water.
Book now to be part of the UK's biggest dinghy and watersports gathering!
