Seafest report
Tuesday, June 26th, 2012A number of LFYC sailors attended Seafest Regatta in Rathmullen last weekend. Racing on Saturady was cancelled due to very heavy winds. There was a good turn out on Sunday with two dinghy fleets sailing. There was a PICO fleet (16 boats) and a Larger Dinghy fleet (5 boats, Gp14, 2 laser Bahia’s, a laser vago and a Laser). Two races were held in medium winds (f3/f4) and strong tides leading to a bumpy ride.
James L and James H were sailing a GP14 and won both races in the larger Dinghy Class, comingĀ first overall.
Jack H was sailing a PICO and came 5th and 2nd coming in third overall in the PICO Class.
Congratulations lads!

As usual in Rathmullen the hospitality and the food was excellent. Seafest got a great overall turnout with chances to go surfingm, canoeing and taster sailing sessions. A great weekend despite the weather on the Saturday.
