Team: RYS announced at the 2024 UKOPA Awards evening of a new trophy for the 2025 season and beyond, the ‘H400 Thunderstreak Trophy’ for Outstanding Sportsmanship.

At every race, the OOD with a member of Team:RYS (“The Judges”) will award “points” for a Race Boat, Race Marshall or Member that demonstrates exemplary standards of sportsmanship in the eyes of the judges before, during and after each race.

At every end-of-season prize-giving, the winning boat will be announced and allowed to hold the trophy for the coming season.

The trophy is an antique, valuable, solid silver 19th century piece – beautifully decorated, as you can see. It will be engraved with the boat‘s name and year.

Additionally, a H400 Thunderstreak Certificate will be awarded at the same time with the boat’s name and the crew afloat and ashore.
