Amendment 2025-09-28: Due to a lack of wind today, we are postponing the event to 5 October. Any boat that entered for 28 September is automatically entered for 5 October. Entry will now close on 4 October, so if you missed out on entering for the 28th, you can still enter for the 5th.
DMYC invites boats to sail around the Kish Lighthouse, in either of two distinct formats: a race or a cruise. Prizes are from Leinster Boats, who are sponsoring the event.
The race will be similar to the Kish Race run in recent years. The cruise is intended for boats that do not want to race, but would like to sail around the Kish Lighthouse in the company of other boats.
As usual, this event depends on the weather. There are options for alternative destinations if the wind is too light or too strong. If necessary, we could postpone to the following Sunday.
Details are in the document below, which includes the official Notice of Race for the racing boats. You can download the document if you prefer. Scroll down for the entry form – if you are working on a small screen, it may be easier to open it in a new tab.
