The Davy National Yacht Club Junior Regatta
The Davy National Yacht Club Junior Regatta was held last week with blue skies, fair winds and plenty of sunshine. There were 101 boats registered with 119 sailors from across all the waterfront clubs. It was our first full regatta since Covid and the stars aligned for us on the day.
Registration went like clockwork thanks to Sandra Moore and Henrietta O’Regan, and the sailors were delighted with their goody bags where they got sun caps and water bottles thanks to Davy and really important on such a hot day.
The club welcomed its juniors with a special playlist to get everyone in the spirit.
After the briefing by our Race Officers Chris Moore and Alan Balfe, our safety officers Alan Daly and Fiona Feguson gave their briefings.
All launched smoothly thanks to Gavin Denn, Louise Reeser on slip and Rebecca Hall our Beachmaster.
On the water there was great competitive sailing and you can see the great action shots taken by Michael Chester of our sailors on the water.
