Frostbite races are running again in the winter of 2022-23, and we are delighted to have Viking Marine on board as a sponsor again this year.
We try to hold racing on most Sundays from November through to March, weather permitting. You can find news and updates here, or on our Facebook page.
The races are intended for mono-hull dinghies, but we may allow other light craft that can race safely on the same course as the dinghies.
Frostbite Races
The normal Frostbite racing is scheduled on Sundays, with the first start at 14:00. We normally have two races each day, if the weather allows, but we might have three races on a really nice day! Racing usually takes place inside Dun Laoghaire harbour, with permission from the Harbour Master. In good conditions, we might venture outside the harbour, but not too far away. The courses may be triangular, windward-leeward or a mix of the two.
Racing is divided into two series:
- Series 1: 6 November to 18 December 2022
- Series 2: 1 January to 26 March 2023
Entries are still open – see the entry form below.
