Welcome to the Comet Combined Class Association (CCCA) website.

The CCCA is a friendly organisation that exists to promote and further the interests of the owners of the 4 double handed classes of dinghy originally produced by Comet Dinghies, namely the Trio, Duo, Versa and Zero.

CCCA Facebook Page

CCCA Online Forum where technical help for Comet owners can be asked, and hopefully we’ll be able to provide the answer.

If you were looking for info about the Comet dinghy, they are at the Comet Class Association.

We support CCCA Members by:

Organising the National and Inland Championships as required.
Co-ordinating the programme for other Open Meetings and cruising events for the Classes in the British Isles.
Promulgating information on technical development within the Classes.
Keeping members informed of developments concerning the Classes and any proposals concerning class rules.
Maintaining a register of CCCA members, and regularly communicating with them.

Membership of the CCCA is free to all current owners (or a soon-to-be owner) of the classes that we cover.

Please look at the News and Events tabs to see what is currently happening or look at our Facebook page.

For descriptions of the dinghies and associated technical information look under the Classes tab.

We hope that you will find the information you are seeking, if not, please contact us.

Comet Festival Cotswold SC 5th – 10th June

Posted on 3rd May 2025 by bob

This is the first time we have run this event and we are very keen to have Versas, Duos and Zeros attend. We are already expecting 15 Mk1 Trios at the event and we have Versa, Duo and Zero helms at Cotswold hoping that others will turn up. We also have 4 Comet Races – most of you will never have seen a Comet Race.

The Festival is not just about racing. There is cruising and training, camping, meals and the opportunity to meet and socialise. See Comet Festival 2 for more information.

The Festival Entry Form is here and for those intending to race please see the NOR and SIs If you’d prefer this information e-mailed to you please contact Richard Salliss direct.

Please encourage every Comet doublerhander that you know to come – it would be great to see them. They can bring their supporters too, so if for instance Fred is going to turn up with his boat then he can bring friends or family to sail his boat over the Festival period as well.

Hope to see you there too

Regards

Richard Salliss
