Neither of Ireland’s women’s K1 paddlers made it through to the semi-final of the Canoe Slalom World Championships in Bratislava today.

Aisling Conlon finished 61st and Hannah Craig – who was given a 50-second penalty for missing gate nine on both of her runs -  ended in 66th. Only the top 30 progress. Ireland can not now qualify a boat in women’s events for the Olympics at this championships.

The first day’s action at the Canoe Slalom World Championships in Bratislava in Slovakia was cancelled yesterday evening. Aisling Conlon and Hannah Craig had done their first runs in the women’s K1 but the organisers voided the results and cancelled the scheduled second run because of high winds.

About RC44

The RC44 is a light displacement, high performance one-design racing yacht competing in the 44Cup, a five-stop international racing tour. Co-designed by five-time America’s Cup winner Russell Coutts with naval architect Andrej Justin, the RC44 boats are strictly identical in terms of construction, shape of hull, appendages and weight/weight distribution, as well as a 50-50 split between amateurs and professionals in each eight-person crew. With everything, from the keel to the tip of the mast, made entirely from carbon, and with a powerful sail plan, the RC44 is rapid downwind, commanding upwind and performs exceptionally in both light winds and heavier breezes. The RC44’s innovative and technical design present an exciting new hybrid sailing challenge, with the crews expected to hike like a sports boat and grind as you would on a keelboat.
