ISORA applauded its 2025 overall champion, Andrew and Sam Hall, and their Pwllheli Yacht Club 'Pata Negra' crew at the association's annual sell-out black-tie dinner at the National Yacht Club on Saturday, November 8th. See the prizegiving photo gallery by GP Foto below.
Pata Negra was presented with the Wolf’s Head Trophy when the Irish Sea Offshore Racing Association (ISORA) gathered for its sell-out night, which is one of the largest events of its kind on the Dun Laoghaire waterfront.
The Hall’s Lombard 46, from Caernarfon and racing for Pwllheli Sailing Club, claimed the 2025 Musto ISORA Series after topping the 36–boat fleet on 645.9 points. The victory followed a blustery season finale, a crossing from Pwllheli to the Kish lighthouse in 30 knots of wind.
