#Mirror - Ben Graf and Hannah Smith of Lough Ree Yacht Club topped the table at the 2017 Mirror Eastern Championships in Clontarf last weekend.

The duo pipped their club-mates Caolan Croasdell and Alexander Farrell in a reversal of their fortunes at the Mirror Worlds a month ago, where they placed 15th and 13th respectively as the best of the Irish in Falmouth.

Oscar Langan and Lughaidh Croasdell (CY&BC/Lough Ree YC) made it a top-three shutout for the Shannon sailing club. Full results can be found on the Mirror Sailing Ireland Facebook page.

Clontarf Yacht & Boat Club hosted the six races over the weekend of Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 August, as previously reported on Afloat.ie.
