Brian and John Hall's National Yacht Club J109 Something Else leads the J109 European Championships after two races sailed on Saturday at the J Cup Regatta at the Royal Irish Yacht Club on Dublin Bay.

The Hall's score of 1,2 puts them a point ahead of John Maybury's Joker II in the 11-boat fleet, which counts a 3,1. Lying third is Scotland's Robin Young's Jings from the Clyde on a six-point total. 

Conditions were light, with winds up to ten knots from the northeast, but the race programme was completed successfully.

Racing continues on Sunday.
