Last week I shared a feature on Rothmans Week which brought back an “off the charts” response, so as this is when Rothmans Week was traditionally sailed, here is more.

This is how the opening two paragraphs read: “One of the major events on the South African sailing calender, the Rothmans Week regatta, will be held in Table Bay from December 14 to 21.
“Staged since 1974. it is sponsored by Rothmans, who have been involved in the sailing scene from 1960.”
