The Irish J109 Irish Championships scheduled for Dublin Bay this weekend has been cancelled 'due to a lack of entries'.

Seven entries had been received but deemed 'not viable to proceed' with the championship, according to a statement issued by regatta organisers.

Organisers say that a 2023 championship date will be decided at the class AGM.

Afloat sources say efforts were made to reschedule to an alternative date next month for the 2022 event, but some boats were unavailable.

At least one boat made the journey from West Cork to Dun Laoghaire for this weekend.
