The Squib Outlaw sailed by Ian Travers and Keith O'Riordan were the overall winners of the Custom Rigging Frostbites at Kinsale Yacht Club yesterday in a mix of conditions that included some heavy squalls. 

After 12 races sailed, and with a four-point winning margin, Travers and O'Riordan beat clubmates Colm Dunne and Fiona Ward sailing Allegro for victory in the 13-boat fleet. 

Third was Fifty Shades sailed by KYC Commodore Matthias Hellstern and Colm Daly

There was no Topper or March league racing at Kinsale yesterday.
