This year's prize pool just got even bigger and better, thanks to our title sponsors PIC Insurance Brokers and Jerry Clayton BMW. For the first time ever, one lucky entrant will drive away from the Coastal in a luxurious new BMW.
The prize - a six month pre-paid lease on a sporty new BMW 1 Series - must be won at this year's prizegiving ceremony on Saturday 25th October. But you'll need to be at the prizegiving to win it, otherwise the prize will be re-drawn until it's claimed, guaranteeing one lucky person will be driving in style after this year's Coastal.
Make sure you're in the draw
To be in to win this awesome spot prize, all you need to do is make sure you're entered in this year's PIC Insurance Brokers Coastal Classic, and fill in the Win a BMW draw entry form on the PIC website.
Get yourself a second entry into the Win a BMW draw, simply by liking PIC Insurance Brokers on Facebook. Yep - it's that easy to double your chances of winning!
PS. Sailing Instructions are now live on the website - just visit the Race Docs page to download them. And remember to get your entry in before Friday 10th October to avoid late entry fees!
