New Introductory Class at #VDLR2025

Boats that do not usually race from Dun Laoghaire, Howth, Greystones, Malahide, Poolbeg and Bray are the focus of Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta’s (VDLR) new ‘introductory class’ this July. Organisers will set a simple course – one race a day after everyone else has started or left the harbour. “The purpose is to get boats involved that don’t normally race but would like to try racing/be involved in a regatta from the social side”, explained VDLR Event Director Paddy Boyd.
