The 2018 South Coast of Ireland Offshore Racing Association (SCORA) AGM will take place in the Royal Cork Yacht Club on Tue December 4th at 7.30pm.

Among the items on the agenda will be a discussion on the future of the Cork harbour combined sailing leagues with inputs from MBSC, GISC and RCYC.

Following on from last years AGM, a full review of the existing South Coast class bands will take place, together with a report on the future of offshore racing and the possible running of a race to Dunmore East in 2019.

Having completed his term of office, outgoing SCORA Commodore Kieran O'Connell will hand over the roll to Johanna Murphy from GISC, who will become the first female to lead the SCORA organisation.

"A special presentation will be made by the Bateman family, in memory of the late Claire"

In addition to the eighteen prizewinners from the six cruiser classes, a special presentation will be made by the Bateman family, in memory of the late Claire, to the competitor of the season who through participation in a variety of South coast events, helped to introduce many newcomers to the thrill of sailing.
