'Legally Blonde' does the double

29th May 2009

Light southerly breezes against an ebbing tide brought Dublin Bay competitors to a gentle finish yesterday evening after a long spinnaker reach back into the bay from East mark. Cathal Drohan and Paul Egan's Legally Blonde won both in class and on ECHO handicap in the Beneteau 31.7 class. George Sisk's WOW also took a double win in Cruisers Zero as did John Maybury's Joker II in Cruisers one. Full results over the fold:
