Due to Saturday's extreme weather forecast, ISORA's first coastal race is postponed until a date to be agreed upon amongst those skippers who entered the race.
As Afloat previously reported, ISORA boss Peter Ryan issued the Sailing Instructions (downloadable below) for the three- to four-hour race on Wednesday evening but warned, "If there is no significant improvement in the weather forecast by Friday lunchtime, I will be proposing that the race is postponed to a later date."
The next Irish coastal race in the Viking Marine Series is the following Saturday, the 13th April, with an 11.00 am start.
The course will be selected to provide a three to four-hour race.
"I’m hoping we can attract a good fleet, as four of the five races are part of the Vincent Farrell Trophy Series take place over the next four weekends," ISORA boss Peter Ryan told Afloat.
The last two races are on Sunday to avoid a clash with DBSC. "There are no excuses for boats not taking part", Ryan said.
