I have since prepared the Widget which is now ready to hit the water again and these boats can be used by people wanting to try IOM and get a feel for them. Thanks to Damien for your donation it will help us and new members.

 

April 09

21th - More training session in Cork by our Cork fleet in all kinds of conditions - even in the recent gale force wind so our 2 skippers who will fly the Irish flag at the next World Championships have plenty of time on the water in all weather conditions to fine tune their boats.

13th - 3 Irish skippers go to the UK to race against top UK skippers including the current World Champion as part of their preparation program. They all did very well, even winning some races. Showing that they do have the pace which is also good to assess the level of racing on our own water.
