Events Volunteers Welcomed at Plas Heli
Taking part in an event, afloat or ashore, can be very rewarding and enjoyable please contact us if you would like to join our volunteer team.
Plas Heli and Clwb Hwylio Pwllheli Sailing Club are very proud of their record of running sailing events in Pwllheli since the 1960's.
These events have been of the highest quality and sailed in the World acclaimed sailing waters of Cardigan Bay which provides near perfect sailing conditions with lack of commercial shipping, no strong tidal flows and ‘clean’ prevailing wind from the south-west. The racing arena is only minutes from the safe harbour, the Hafan marina or from the Plas Heli pontoon berths.
It is these superb qualities, and the club volunteers, that makes the process of organising events so much easier and provides the potential for the racing to be the best in the UK!
The hosting of events in Pwllheli since 2015 has been transferred to Plas Heli, the operating company of The Welsh National Sailing Academy and Events Centre, which is the Premier Sailing Event Centre In Wales, and a Community Enterprise and a not for profit distribution company where all surpluses are reinvested in the the facilities.
The events at Plas Heli is impressive every year and we again call for your support by volunteering.

-
Safety boat helm and crews

We would be delighted to hear from anyone who could provide assistance, in any way, during these events. This support can be for a day, weekend or whole week Championship.
