Haugheys Present Prizes at Dingle Regatta
Members of the Haughey family were on hand to present prizes to the winners of this year's Dingle Regatta at the weekend.
The Irish Independent reports that Conor Haughey was joined by brothers Ciaran and Sean, sister Eimear and their families at the prizegiving ceremony.
Their presence marked the strong ties their father, the late former Taoiseach Charles Haughey, had with the sailing community in the Co Kerry town.
Locals won out in this year's regatta, which has taken place since 1857 and is still raced with traditional naomhog boats.
The Griffin brothers and Michael O'Leary took the men's title, Maunza Heidke was tops of the women.
