Deloitte to be Title Sponsor of Flying Fifteen Championships of Ireland 2018

Deloitte has been confirmed as a new sponsor of the Flying Fifteen Championships of Ireland 2018, hosted by the National Yacht Club in Dun Laoghaire from 28th to 30th September (NOR to be published soon...)

Dublin Bay is recognised as a top class sailing venue, and with Jack Roy - international and Olympic pro, as well as Irish Sailing President - on the bill as race officer, the day will not be short on quality race management and expertise.
