Two of a kind

Champions Johnny and Stephen are Sailors of Month
Looking back on a September packed with success stories, singling out a Sailor of the Month was always going to be an impossible task — so our judges picked two title-winners, and for the second time this year one of those is an overseas raider. Read why we thought Laser Radial ace Johnny Durcan deserved the inshore award, while Phwelli’s Stephen Tudor had to be recognised for his offshore achievements.
Meanwhile, RORC opens the door to the new breed of super-maxis for next year’s Fastnet Race, a new £6million car ferry prepares to enter service on Strangford Lough, Rowing Ireland is hiring Olympic coaches, Burren beach is transformed by jellyfish invasion, and forget the Kim Kardashian heist — as much as €20,000 is taken from Cliffs of Moher Visitor Centre in sophisticated burglary.

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven’t put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full–time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

If everyone chipped in, we can enhance our coverage and our future would be more secure. You can help us through a small donation. Thank you.
