  ​The Lapwing has been the Aldeburgh Yacht Club's unique class of dinghy since 1947, part of the club's heritage and is still sailing today. Lapwings are used for racing and for cruising, for regattas and for picnics, by adults and children alike. Lapwings suffered a decline in the first few years of the 21st Century, but are now becoming very popular again, many have been bought recently by enthusiastic new owners who are restoring and sailing them on the Alde.
​Dates for the diary for 2020:-
​

6th June : Little Garrett Cup @ 12.00 - A race to Iken and back at the top of the tide.
1/2 August : Margaret Tudor Bowl - Lapwing Championships @ 12:00 both days. This year we will have a Gold and Silver fleet. The silver fleet will be to encourage the less experienced helms to compete in a less competitive environment.
16/21 August : Aldeburgh Regatta. Five race afternoon series with racing at Orford on Thursday.
30th August : Acheson Trophy @ 14:00 . A long race for a dubious prize. Anyone feel like donating a new trophy?!
20th September : Silver Lapwing @ 13:00. A race to Little Japan followed by sandwiches on the beach. And the AGM in the club house.
 
In addition to this, the Lapwing class has a class start every Wednesday evening where you can pit your wits against the Alde and enjoy a social beer afterwards.
