Ireland's sailing, boating & maritime magazine

On the Forum: Bouquets for VDLR, Sailors of the Month and 2012

14th July 2009

On the Forum: Thumbs up for Dun Laoghaire Regatta but Garboard Strake asks why the event needed Green Dragon. GCraig and Markham Nolan disagree. Noel Davidson says the Royal Irish needs a Laser Card machine. RICM wants the crews involved in the Sailor of the Month Competition. In his humble opinion Lynchy does not think Ireland (with the exception of the Star Class) will have much hope getting on the podium in London 2012. We want your contribution too! Log in, join over 700 Irish boating fans and have your say here. Our aim is to provide Irish sailing with a more open environment for discussion than is available in the printed magazine or on the website or elsewhere. A forum for Irish boating of all types. Register and have your say. EMAIL If you have a news item for us, or want so see more coverage of any particular issue, or just have something to say to Afloat, you can simply email us.

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven’t put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full–time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

If everyone chipped in, we can enhance our coverage and our future would be more secure. You can help us through a small donation. Thank you.
