This Saturday sees our first regatta of 2023. This will consist of 2 races with the first one kicking off at Fahan at 11.30am and finishing at Rathmullan pier. The second race will be a shorter race starting at Rathmullan pier and finishing at Rathmullan.
More instructions will be given on the day, length of courses will depend on the wind conditions.
Afterwards we’ll have a prize giving in the white heart with the view of getting folk back to Fahan by 5pm when there’s enough water.
Should be a great day on the water ⛵️
