On the eve of the Beneteau 211 One Design national championships at the Royal Irish Yacht Club at Dun Laoghaire this weekend, Billy Whizz (James Conboy Fischer) was the winner of Tuesday night's DBSC race. Second was Pat Shannon's Beeswing and third was Plan B (Kieran Kingston and Vincent Mulvey).

55 boats across all DBSC fleets enjoyed light airs on a sunny Dublin Bay evening as part of the AIB Summer Series. The top three in each class are below.

Congratulations are due to Declan Traynor, long-time DBSC Patrol chief, who had a successful first outing as Race Officer on the Dinghy Course, under the watchful eye of National Race Officer, Suzanne McGarry, backed up by long-time Dinghy Course stalwarts Ros Bremner, Caroline Liddy, Liz Aylmer, Sharon Moylan & Brendan Dalton.
