Summary of 2020 Sailing

Tuesday, April 20th, 2021

2020 was the year of Coronavirus rather than Sailing. Nonetheless we did manage a to sail Series A, B and C. We also sailied a friendly series in “bubble groups”.

We had a great but different Culmore regatta with fewer visiting sailors and spectators than we might normally host. The regatta co-incided with the launch of a Kevin Lynchs new Foyle Punt. Barra Best and the BBC made a nice TV programme about the event. Honestly, it cheered everyone up!
