Regatta News Update
Entries are now rolling in for Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta, a fixture widely expected to be the biggest in Ireland this season when it sets sail on Dublin Bay in July with up to 500 boats expected. The early entries, 10 weeks ahead of the entry deadline, is being taken as a thumbs up by competitors for the fun and value theme of this year's VDLR.
To date 22 different yacht clubs have entered from six countries. The bulk of the fleet is Irish but there are early entries from France , Isle of Man , UK , Wales and Northern Ireland .
Another good turnout is expected from Liverpool and Holyhead for boats competing in the IRC Lyver Cup Race across the Irish Sea . Ten boats from the Clyde are also
expected to compete on the Bay. Cork 's Conor Phelan the skipper of Jump Juice is one of the first Royal Cork boats confirmed.
Two handed IRC racing will make its debut organisers have also confirmed. Up to six boats have expressed interest in the new initiative and the organisers say the class will race over a mix of coastal and windward leeward courses. This is an exciting development for the regatta.
Events being run within the regatta to date are the Fireball 'Open Championship', an event that follows the class world championships in Sligo in June, J109 Nationals and the Wayfarer UK & Irish National Championships.
