The Royal Cork Yacht Club have welcomed the appointment of club member Stephen O’Shaughnessy as racing manager at Irish Sailing.
The Cork city native has extensive sailing experience, from the Mirror dinghies of his youth to the the ILCA7 team racing in the Firefly, not to mention keelboat racing both inshore in Dublin Bay and offshore.
Today he’s a fixture of the National 18 dinghy fleet in Cork Harbour and still regularly sails keelboats.
In his new role, O’Shaughnessy will support all aspects of competitive racing across Ireland — local, national and international.
