Marlow Ropes, based in Hailsham, is supporting the Junior Offshore Group (JOG) event, which will see crews sail from Cowes to Eastbourne on Friday, April 18.
Race four of this year’s programme will see crews sail from Cowes to Eastbourne on Good Friday, followed by race five on Sunday, April 20, for the return sail.
JOG is a yacht club established in 1950 to enable smaller yachts to compete offshore, and it organises highly competitive races for IRC1-rated yachts.
Jane Ings, marketing manager for Marlow, said: “It’s an event that showcases the talent and dedication of young sailors.
“The JOG racing event is a fantastic opportunity for participants to demonstrate their skills and passion for sailing, and Marlow Ropes is honoured to be a part of their 75th anniversary.
“We look forward to seeing the crews in action and celebrating their achievements as they sail into Eastbourne.”
On Saturday, there will be a prize-giving ceremony at the Sovereign Yacht Club, Eastbourne, that will recognise the hard work and accomplishments of the crews before they start race five on Sunday, sailing from Eastbourne back to Cowes.
The offshore series runs throughout 2025.
