Big Winds Start Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta
Unexpected strong winds got the fourth Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta off to a stunning start on Dublin Bay yesterday even though a number of boats in the massive 420-boat fleet got into difficulties as the southerly breeze hit 25 knots. SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO AND PICTURES AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS STORY.
Nearly 3,000 sailors and 420 boats are afloat for the four day regatta that is the biggest sailing event in the Irish Sea area.
An impressive line up of 14 Class Zero boats has made Volvo Dun Laoghaire regatta the biggest turnout this year for the 40-footers and it was appropriate that Howth's well campaigned Crazy Horse should make the running in the big sea conditions.

The Chambers/Reilly skippered Mills 36 beat Fairlie visitor Christine Murray's Elf too, a Beneteau First 40 on the windward leeward course. Third was another visitor Grand Cru (Jamie McGarry) from the Clyde.

Anthony O'Leary put on a David vs Goliath performance in the dramatic opener. Surfing conditions gave his modified 1720 a real chance to show her speed downwind against some boats seemingly twice the size in IRC One.
The gutsy performance would have put the Royal Cork yacht 'Antix Beag' top of the 19-boat fleet except the Cork crew lost their rig. It is still unofficial but Debbie Aitken's Elan 380 Animal from Royal Northern and Clyde Yacht Club is the probable winner. Second is the locally based Sigma 38 Errislannan skippered by Paul Kirwan.
Late last night O'Leary got a new mast through one of the local sailing school's 1720 fleet and thanks to school principal Alistair Rumball the customised 1720 hopes to be back on the water this morning.
A Mermaid dinghy is dismasted in the strong winds
In class two Sligo visitor Ruthless, a Corby 26, sailed by Conor Ronan beat the locally based half tonner Dick Dastardly from the DMYC. Another vintage half tonner, King one, from Howth and skippered by Dave Cullen was third.
Last year's winner of the overall Volvo trophy Flor O'Driscoll is back in contention again. His J24 Hard on Port was the winner of the regatta's biggest fleet taking a win from Ken Lawless's Supernova in the 38-boat class three division.
In the one design divisions there were plenty of familiar names at the top top of the fleets given the testing southerlies that prevailed.
Sigma Supreme - White Mischief prepares for a hoist
Tim Goodbody leads the Sigma 33s, David Gorman the Flying fifteens, Patrick Boardman the Mermaids, Colin Galavan the SB3s, first race winner Ben Duncan did not sail the second race. Pat Kelly's Storm leads the 10 boat J109s who are also racing for national championship honours.

Strong Winds Confine DBSC Dinghies to Harbour Course
No sooner had the Dublin Bay Sailing Club (DBSC) dinghy fleet sought the refuge of Dun Laoghaire harbour for tonight's racing than the strong southerly winds that swept the bay abated. Racing however continued in the confines of the harbour, the results (below) showing another win for Frank Hamilton's Dunmoanin' in the IDRA 14 foot class. Second was Sapphire sailed by Lorcan O'Sullivan and third was Jenny Byrne's Doody. In the Fireball dinghy class, Stephen Oram's new boat, the top Irish performer in the Sligo World Championships last month, was the winner in that class. Full DUBLIN PORT Dublin Bay Sailing Club Results for 5 JULY 2011 are below:

Tiamat Returns to Cruisers Zero with a Win
Also afloat for the first time was George Sisk’s much anticipated Wow, a new J111. The delivery of this Dublin Bay boat was delayed, which meant the crew, also from the Royal Irish Yacht Club, missed both the ICRA nationals and Sovereign's Week last month but they'll not miss Thursday's Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta.
At 14 boats it will be the biggest gathering of Zero's so far this season.

Supernova Does the Double on Dublin Bay
Ken Lawless's Supernova was a double winner in last night's Dublin Bay Sailing Club (DBSC) race, a result that sets up the Dubois Starflash design as a favourite in the biggest fleet of next week's Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta at the same venue. Our Dublin Bay Correspondent Reports.
On IRC handicap Huggy Bear (S.Doyle/G.Byrne) was second to Supernova and third was the Bolero 26, Two Step (Ross Doyle). On ECHO, Huggy Bear took second too but third went to the club's only Jezequel 116 design, Cri-Cri skippered by Paul Colton.
DBSC are celebrating the success of course changes introduced this year that have received widespread approval across the 17 fleets. The new courses are producing tight racing, a situation very much in evidence last night across the bay but particularly noticeable in the one design classes. Good turnouts from the Ruffian's, Fifteens and SB3s were treated to good courses and some of the closest racing of the season.
Royal St. George crews fared well with Derek Mitchell coming out on top in a 19-boat Ruffian fleet and Andrew Algeo at the helm of Flutter the SB3 winner. Tom Leonard's Mellifluence from the National Yacht Club was the winner of the 16-Flying fifteens. The full results are below:

Snow White Recovers to Win DBSC Flying Fifteen Race
After what turned out to be a dissappointing end to last weekend's national championships on Dublin Bay for Flying fifteen duo Ciaran Crummy and Frank Burgess, the National Yacht Club pair were back at the top of the DBSC fleet this afternoon sailing Snow White to victory in a 12–boat fleet. Second was club mate Alan Dooley's Flogger and third was The Gruffalo (Keith Poole).
Blustery west winds up to 15 knots and record temperatures made for pleasant Saturday racing across all 17 DBSC classes.
Henry Robinson's Whiterock won the Shipmans, up to speed following last weekend's Belfast Lough nationals Paddy Maguire took advanatge of Tim Goodbody's absence at the Sovereign's Cup to win in the Sigma 33s and Ann Kirwan won the Ruffians.

Big Smile on Dublin Bay as Corby Design Wins on IRC and ECHO
A double win for the Cruiser II Smile in IRC and ECHO handicap in tonight's Dublin Bay Sailing Club race will be seen as a welcome boost just two weeks before the biggest regatta of the season writes our Dublin Bay Correspondent.
It is not the first win this season either for Barry O'Sullivan's Corby 25. The National Yacht Club entry enjoyed another fine ECHO performance in one of DBSC's biggest fleets on May 28th too. Tonight Smile beat Jim McCann's well sailed Mustang 30 Peridot for the IRC honours.
Smile is one of 25 boats in the cruisers II fleet preparing for Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta, the country's biggest regatta that has secured 400 entries for its fourth staging from July 7th.
