Welcome to the website of the Checkmate Sailing Team.

Based in the UK and Ireland, helmed by Nigel Biggs.

*Best wishes to all our friends and competitors for 2010*

The Checkmate Team is currently 'between boats'.  

In 2009 our J/109 raced under the name "Christie Cancer Care" ; news of her season can be found here on the website; she is also featured in the 'case studies' article in the RORC's 2010 IRC Yearbook.
