#DBSC –Dick Lovegrove's Rupert was the winner of today's DBSC Sigma 33 race. Royal St. George club mate Paddy Maguire on the helm of Gwili Two was second and A. Bell sailing Miss Behavin third. It was a spectacular afternoon for sailing with 15–knot north easterly breezes but unfortunately inshore, in Seapoint Bay, the dinghy fleet suffered a lack of wind and elsewhere it was decidely flukey.
There was a reduced turnout in Dublin Bay Sailing Club's cruiser divisions for today's racing with attention focused on results across the bay in Howth at the BMW ICRA Natinoals. The Dragon class was also diverted to the National Yacht Club's staging of the 18-boat east coast championships.
In a wind starved corner of Dublin Bay Hugh Sheehy's OK Dinghy won both races of the day, with a margin of two seconds in one and nearly a minute in the other. That puts the OK clearly in the lead of the Saturday series.

Red Rhum Romps Home in DBSC Cruisers 2 Race
#DBSC – Jonathan and Chris Nicholson's Red Rhum made the most of the easterly winds and big seas for today's Dublin Bay Sailing Club race even though the veteran DB1 cruiser was chased hard by Mervyn Dyke's Jawesome J80 for IRC handicap honours. Red Rhum from the Royal St. George YC also took ECHO honours with Jim McCann's Mustang 30 Peridot second.
The one design divisions were reduced because the Royal Alfred's annual Baily Bowl competition for Squibs, Dragons and RS Elites is also being staged on Dublin Bay at the Royal St. George YC.

Supernova Lights up Cruisers III on Dublin Bay
#DBSC – West north west winds ranging in strength from 9 knots to 20 brought Cruisers III Supernova (Shannon, Lawless, McCormack) its first wn of the Dublin Bay Sailing Club (DBSC) season this afternoon winning all four divisions of the new Cruisers III set-up for 2012.
In a big turnout in all classes for the third Saturday of the season Dublin bay also played host to the SB20 East coast championships.
Quest sailed by Jonathan Skerritt (who won the April 28th race) was second in Cruisers III A division on IRC handicap to the Bay champion Supernova with Jerry O'Neill's Jammie Dodger third.
There was no ISORA fixture so some of the offshore crews were back racing on inshore courses but a J109 winner offshore Joker II had to be content with third in Cruisers one. The Cruisers one race was won by the brand new J109 Ruth skippered by Liam Shanahan of the National Yacht Club.
In the one design classes the Squibs appear to have survived last week's leeward mark grounding in the shallows off Seapoint. Vicent Delaney's Femme Fatale won from Perfection (Jill Fleming). Third was Nimble (Brian O'Hare).
