Flying Fifteen Fleet’s Visit to the STV SĂžrlandet
As preparations for the clubâs annual lift-in got underway, Flying Fifteen fleet members participating in the Frostbite series temporarily relocated their boats to the Carlisle Pier, with kind permission from Tim Ryan of DLRCC. This move provided fleet members with the unique opportunity to admire, up close, the latest tall ship to visit Dun Laoghaire Harbourâthe magnificent STV SĂžrlandet.
Upon approach by our Commodore, Peter Sherry, Captain Ulf Hed of the SĂžrlandet warmly welcomed the fleet aboard, offering them a brief but fascinating tour of the ship.

Platform Clearance for the Lift-out 2024!
Dear Summer Platform Parking users.
The Summer Platform Parking Season is coming to an end on Sunday 6th October (at the very latest for boats still taking part in sailing activities) and we need a total platform clearance of all the dinghies and other types currently on the deck and / or on racks to make room for the lift-out which is scheduled for Saturday 12th October.
If your boat is not in use in one of the Club organised training anymore please make sure to come and collect it as soon as possible as the skeleton boathouse staff needs to reconfigure the platform well in advance of the lift-out and to reposition, or partially dismantle the racks used by the Opis, Toppers, Lasers and RS Aeros.
ALL dinghies must be removed by Sunday 6th October 18:00 at the very latest.
Please note that we do not have room to store any boat even temporarily on the Carlisle Pier until the platform reopens for the Winter parking season and cannot facilitate any such request.
The Committee is currently reviewing the demand for platform space from the various user groups this winter (junior dinghy sailors / adult dinghy sailors / single handed / 2 handed boats / keelboat dry sailing) and will have to limit the various classes of boats to strict numbers.
The online winter platform parking application form will open on Monday 14th October from 1800 - For booking online, please visit: https://nyc.ie/winter-dinghy-platform-parking/
