Peter Dunlop and Victoria Cox's Class Zero J122 Mojito from Pwllheli Sailing Club won Saturday's 80-mile Dun Laoghaire to Pwllheli race. The Class Two J109 Ruth (Shanahan family), the archrival for ISORA's overall Wolf's Head Trophy for 2024, finished third in the ten-hour race across the Irish Sea.
This result has produced an overall points scenario in which Mojito is on 534.6 points and Ruth is 2.7 points behind on 531.9. ISORA Chief Peter Ryan says, 'We calculate that the series is not concluded with this race and will be decided after the last race!'
Finishing second overall yesterday evening was Class One JPK 1030, Coquine, skippered by Alan Hannon of Belfast Lough.
Saturday's Race 15, also known as the James Eadie race in tribute to the ISORA stalwart, was the year's final cross-channel race. It will be followed by September coastal races to conclude the 2024 season. The Irish night race will be on Friday, September 27th, a four-hour race starting at 18.00. The postponed Irish coastal race will be on Saturday, September 28th, with the usual 10.00 start for a five-hour race.
