The Network Insurance House Summer Short Offshore Series is a racing series which provides a mix of offshore passage races during the daytime and short offshore (SOPS style) races.
It is the perfect training ground heading into longer passage races or leading into the Blue Water Pointscore.
This series replaced the Ocean Pointscore, Short Ocean Pointscore and Short Haul Pointscore, consolidating the racing into a single, diverse Series.
With 9 races held fortnightly from September to March, the series will feature a mix of five coastal windward/leeward races and six passage races. The series will be open to Spinnaker and Non-Spinnaker boats with multiple divisions each race day.
