LFYC was delighted that 30 boats registered for the 2011 Purcell event. The Mayor of Derry (Maurice Devenny) made a visit before the first race started.
Racing was delayed due to very high winds untill 3.00pm. 12 boats ventured out. A spectacular day of heavy weather sailing followed. A very nice social evening in DaVinchi’s hotel was attended by over 70 people. Racing on Sunday was cancelled due to poor weather.
Congratulations to local sailors Keith Louden and Dessie Hughes who won the 2011 Purcell Trophy
