Adult Dinghy Training

Adult Dinghy Training

After seeing the cream of the cream of ILCA sailors amazing skills around Dublin bay, it is almost time to get back to our own sailing and progressing skills in the NYC Autumn training. Lets make the best of the Autumn and restart our own program on September 19th. Sessions will run each saturday morning from 9.30 till 12.30 before enjoying the famous NYC brunch. You can sign up by the session on the club Smart club app. As per previous years, non members are welcomed to join the training and can sign up via the non member CLICK HERE

 

The sessions are geared up towards ILCAs and Aeros but other dinghies are welcome to contact Thomas at headcoach@nyc.ie to check suitability. some of the sessions will certainly manage other types of dinghies.

 

All levels are very welcomed, however early sign up will allow us to gauge the need for one or several coaches on the day. The majority but not all the sessions will be conducted inside the harbour and on short courses keep the group tight and giving a chance to the coach(es) to give effective feedback despite teh different classes in action.

Sailors will be very welcomed to handover feedback themself so coaches can adjust their session and input to the need of the sailors.

 

And dont forget that the best way to test your progress is to take part in the amazing interclub sailing on offer with the DMYC frobites and the INSS Aero super series.

 

Looking forward to yet another great Autumn!

The ILCA 6 Women’s World Championship has arrived!

The National Yacht Club is incredibly proud to be part of this prestigious World Championship, welcoming some of the very best female ILCA 6 sailors from around the world to Dun Laoghaire.

Over the coming days, the fleet will battle it out across the challenging waters of Dublin Bay, with World Champions, Olympic medallists and rising stars all competing for the coveted ILCA 6 Women’s World Championship title.

And, of course, we’ll have a very special sailor to cheer on. 

Our very own Annalise Murphy returns to the ILCA 6 fleet to compete on home waters. An Olympic silver medallist and one of Ireland’s most celebrated sailors, Annalise began her sailing journey here at the National Yacht Club. We couldn’t be prouder to see her competing at this level on Dublin Bay and the whole club is firmly behind her. Go Annalise!
