Kinsale Yacht Club Present Inaugural ‘Jack Roy Perpetual Trophy’ at Sovereign’s Cup as Johnny Treanor’s Valentina shines at the Sovereigns

Kinsale Yacht Club Present Inaugural ‘Jack Roy Perpetual Trophy’ at Sovereign’s Cup as Johnny Treanor’s Valentina shines at the Sovereigns

Kinsailor, the Kinsale Yacht Club Under-25 J24 crew were the inaugural winners of the 'Jack Roy Perpetual Trophy', awarded to the best female helm at Saturday night's 2023 Simply Blue Sovereign's Cup prizegiving.

The trophy was commissioned by the club and made in West Cork.

KYC created the award as a mark of appreciation to the late Jack Roy's running of many events for the club, particularly as Race Officer and Principal Race Officer for The Sovereign's Cup Regatta for many years.

The club asked his wife, Rosemary, who also officiates at Sovereign's Cup races, to present the trophy to the inaugural winners.

The Roy's eldest daughter Jill thanked the club on behalf of the Roy family, highlighting how Jack loved everything about Kinsale Yacht Club and particularly enjoyed his involvement in the Sovereign's Cup.

Jill Roy's words were met with the biggest applause of the night as the packed clubhouse remembered their much-missed race officer.

We take this opportunity to also salute the great performance of Johnny Treanor placing his yacht 'Valentina' 2nd overall in both IRC and ECHO in the Coastal Class.

Volvo D2D Race 2023 – A new record!! All results in and Michael Chester’s special Start photos gallery

Volvo D2D Race 2023 – A new record!! All results in and Michael Chester’s special Start photos gallery

On Thursday 8th at 09:19:14, 'Privateer' skippered by Ron O'Hanley of the New York Yacht Club, crossed the finished line of the 30th anniversary edition of the Dun Laoghaire to Dingle Race, establishing a new Race Record of just 19h19mn14s, at an average speed of 12.422knts!!

All boats are now safe in Dingle (or along the coast for the 14 retirees) marking the end of 'suffering' for all crews who encountered tougher than anticipated wind and sea state conditions.

Special congratulations must also go to Cinnamon Girl, skippered by Cian McCarthy, who finished 2nd overall despite being 'just' a double-handed entry AND to NYC Members Pete Smyth and Crew on their Beneteau Sunfast 3600 'Searcher' in its striking all black livery.

Thank you very much also to Michael Chester for the fantastic photographs taken at the start last Wednesday! (Gallery Here)
