VDLR Day 3 Gallery

Perfect summer sailing conditions on Dublin Bay brought changes to the leaderboard in several classes on the penultimate day of Ireland’s biggest sailing regatta, the Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta on Saturday. Michael Chester was ashore and afloat throughout the weekend, capturing all the action.

Beneteau 211 is Dismasted in Windy First Race

Joe Smyth’s Yikes from the Royal Irish Yacht Club won the breezy first race of the Beneteau 211 class of the Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta on Dublin Bay, but the race was not without drama as one yacht was dismasted.

NYC’s Galvin and Bradley Win First Flying Fifteen Race

The National Yacht Club’s Tom Galvin and Cormac Bradley were the winners of Thursday’s first Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta race in the Flying Fifteen class. As southerly winds topped 30 knots, only five starters from a fleet of 22 came to the startline of the Salthill course area in the northwest of Dublin Bay.

Five Courses Cancel Racing on Blustery Opening Day

The first day of the Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta saw the cancellation of nearly all racing due to strong winds. Five of the six courses at Ireland’s largest sailing event were cancelled as the southerly breeze on Dublin Bay reached 38 knots.

Amendments to the SIs 2023 – No 1 to 6

Closure of South Burford Traffic Separation Scheme

To ensure the safety of all concerned and to facilitate the management of such a large sailing event, the South Burford Traffic Separation Scheme will be closed to all commercial traffic on Thursday 6 July between noon and 6.30pm, and Friday 7, Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 July between 10am and 6.30pm.

Change to the VDLR 2023 NOR – No 3

The Notice of Race (NOR) of the Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta 2023 is changed with a small addition to 3.5.2 & 3.5.3

Griffin is a Favourite for ILCA 6 Honours at VDLR

While Darren Griffin (MYC/RStG) must be a favourite on paper for the Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta ILCA 6 dinghy title as he was top three at the ILCA 6 Master Nationals in the last two years, another north Dublin sailor, Tom Fox of Rush, will also be very fast if the forecasted breeze materialises this weekend.

Southworth’s Quarter Tonner ‘Protis’ is the Star of the Show in IRC 3

It turns out that next week’s Quarter Ton World Championships in Cork Harbour may well have a bearing on the overall results of Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta’s IRC Three division. The reason is that at least three top Quarter Ton teams – including one visiting former world champion – are signed up in a 20-boat mix of eclectic designs. 

RIYC’s ‘Rockabill VI’ Eyes IRC Zero Prize at VDLR

It may look like only half the size of the other IRC classes at Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta, but an 11-boat IRC Zero fleet is every bit as competitive as the other four and double the size of the 2019 entry.
