Pre-Regatta favoutite Anthony O'Leary has exited the All Ireland Sailing Championships in the qualfiying rounds. A start line penalty suffered in today's second race of flight two forced him out of the running.
The victorious Commodore's Cup captain, the current Irish Sailor of the Year, who has sailed in the event previously a dozen times and finished as runner-up on three occassions is the shock elimination as the fleet is halved from 16 to eight for tomorrow's final.
The flight two winners, who appear more evenly matched than flight one, were Flor O'Driscoll, Ryan Seaton, Noel Butler and Gordon Patterson.
