Just a reminder that the annual Women on the Water Race will take place next Sunday, 17th July at 16.00. I would like to encourage as many as possible to take part.
There will be a prize for the winning boat helmed by a woman and of course a prize for an al woman crew.
It would be helpful if you could let me know if you’re intending to take part (or even let me know if you can’t make it) – email me at loughswillysailing.
I’m at Fahan at the moment and it’s looking pretty wild and the forecast is no better.
In the circumstances, the Round the Island Race will be deferred until tomorrow, start time 4.00pm. I look forward to seeing you all there.
The Round the Island Race is scheduled for 3.00pm tomorrow. However, there are very strong winds forecast, currently F5/6 gusting 7.
In the conditions, it may be necessary to postpone the race. The Sailing Secretary and myself will make a decision in the morning and post it on-line about midday.
If it is postponed, the intention is to go ahead with it on Sunday, using the results also for the Creek 5 race which is scheduled for then.

Hi all.
Kim Banks for Moville Boat Club would like a idea of numbers for next Saturdays race at Moville.
Could anyone intending to Race let me know as she wants to plan food etc.

My thanks to everyone who took part in the Melmore Race and Commodore’s Inspection. Congratulations to Niamh, who won the race. All boats met the high standards of hospitality that we have come to expect of the Commodore’s Inspection, and my thanks to skippers and crew for their welcome and good will. The Inspection was a credit to all involved.
