2012 has been one of the most memorable years for sailing events organised by the various sailing and yacht clubs around the Port of Falmouth. Henri Lloyd Falmouth Week is organised for the enjoyment of all our local and visiting sailors, whether they sail the smallest of dinghies or the largest of yachts. The organisation of the week is aimed at providing the very best racing experience for all with the added bonus of the spectacle of all the boats racing for those on shore. We hope you all enjoy our special week.Steve Nicholls Chairman Port of Falmouth Sailing Association
