Carrickfergus Sailing Club in Northern Ireland looks forward to welcoming 500 competitors across its scheduled summer series of racing, as The News Letter reports.

August will be an especially busy month for the Co Antrim club, with its home regatta on 28 August following the Topper Northerns on 21-22 August and the RS Northerns the weekend prior.

And the activity will continue into September with the RYA Youth Championships and the rescheduled J2 Northerns both coming to the north shore of Belfast Lough.

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven’t put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full–time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

If everyone chipped in, we can enhance our coverage and our future would be more secure. You can help us through a small donation. Thank you.
