Dublin Bay Sailing Club's first event of 2015 begins on Sunday morning with the first of its 'Spring Chicken' Series, a series of six races to be held on Sunday mornings from 1st February to 10th March.
Handicaps and start times are downloadable below.
The weather forecast for the first race for the handicap cruiser fleet looks set to blow the cobwebs away. According to the latest Dun Laoghaire marina forecast it will be another day of sunshine and snow showers, most of the showers in the Irish Sea. High cloud may thicken later as fronts associated with a small area of low pressure to the west of Ireland passes south-east toward Biscay. Visibility will be good away from showers, but reduced to moderate or poor during precipitation. Sea state will be moderate near the Marina, but widely rough in the Irish Sea. Winds will be NW 25-30kt NNW 33-45kt!
The entry fee for the series is €60.00 – including temporary membership of DBSC and National YC.
Entries are accepted at the sole discretion of the Race Committee. An entry form and Notice of Race are both downloadable as Word documents on Afloat's earlier Spring Chicken post HERE
