There is only one week to go to enter the Round Ireland Race before a 50% late entry fee penalty applies. Wicklow Organisers are hoping for a fleet in excess of 40 boats to mark the 30th anniversary of the event and so far the east coast club are recording 19 entries. In a further initiative to bring in entries from across the Irish Sea and beyond, the Royal Ocean Racing Club fixture is offering a two for one deal for all overseas entries. The deal has been made possible through the Inter-reg project, Irish-Sea.org. Wicklow SC remind entrants that they are required to have a completed “RORC Checklist” prior to arriving for the event. A 50% Late Entry Fee will be applied to entries received after 8th June 2008
No entry will be accepted after Thursday 17th June 2010.
