Thanks to wins at the ICRA National Championships and Calves Week, Greystones based Kaya currently sits on top of the ICRA BoTY rankings on 10.5 points but this weekend's RCYC Autumn League (preview here) may yet decide the winner of ICRA Boat of the Year 2021.
The next three boats behind her have each gained 9 points in markedly different ways.
Quarter Tonner Snoopy dominated Class 3 at the ICRA National Championships and placed second in Calves Week.
Cork-based Nieulargo won the Dun Laoghaire to Dingle Race and then placed second in Class at June's Sovereigns Cup at Kinsale.
2019 Boat of the Year, Rockabill VI’s results include Overall Winner in the ISORA Coastal Series together with second place in the D2D and DBSC Thursday series.
Of the remaining boats still in contention, HYC’s J/109 Storm and white sails contender Prince of Tides both sit on 7.5 points.
In 2019, the HYC Autumn League sealed the deal for Rockabill VI. In 2021 it could yet be the RCYC Autumn League that nudges Nieulargo ahead of Kaya for final honours.
