Defending champion Pata Negra leads the 2026 MUSTO ISORA overall standings after the latest results update, which now includes the Round Ireland Race, Irish Coastal Series and Welsh Coastal 10-Hour Race scores.
The provisional Sailwave results, updated on June 28, put Andrew and Sam Hall's Lombard 46 from Pwllheli Sailing Club on 520.1 nett points.
ReQuest, the National Yacht Club JPK 10.30 skippered by Justin Burke and his two sons Nathan and Darren Burke, are second on 419.8 points, with Royal St George Yacht Club's Chris Powersmith on the J122 Aurelia third on 412.6.

Loinnir, the JPK 10.30 campaigned by John Malone and Emmet Sheridan, is fourth on 360.8, with Finally fifth on 348.0.
The standings are based on a high-points CHIPS scoring system, with 13 races listed, eight discards and five scores to count. The IRC overall table has 38 entries.
The update gives the clearest picture yet of the championship after a busy opening half of the season, which has included Welsh and Irish coastal races, Irish Sea offshore fixtures and the Round Ireland Race.
Pata Negra has opened a healthy overall lead, but the battle behind remains close. Just 7.2 points separate ReQuest and Aurelia in the fight for second overall. Darling XX heads IRC Class 2 in sixth overall, while Pata Negra, ReQuest and Darling XX currently lead IRC Classes 0, 1 and 2 respectively.
In the Two-Handed Championship, No Xcuse leads from Katanca, with Loinnir third.
The provisional standings now provide the benchmark as the fleet prepares for its next offshore challenge, the K2Q Race from Dún Laoghaire to Cork on 4 July.
The race marks the next opportunity for crews to strengthen their championship positions before the second half of the ISORA season.
