Who said the Cork 1720 one design class was dead!


Action from the Irish nationals in Baltimore West Cork 26-28th of August. This was the Friday we sailed 3 races in a constant 25-30 knots with some big ass gusts.

Excellent race committee kept the races going so no one sat around between races.
The blue boat with the white kite was Anthony Oleary (and me) who won all three races that day and had a titanic battle with the turtle wax kite boat which is his son Nicholas Oleary who ended up winning the event by winning all three races on the Saturday in under 10 knots of breeze.

Thanks
