SCORA, the South Coast Offshore Racing Association, has cancelled Saturday's Kinsale to Baltimore race, a 'feeder' to West Cork prior to Calves Week, due to expected weather conditions.

SCORA Commodore Daragh Connolly announced this afternoon that the race will be deferred until Sunday.

"We have been watching the weather this Saturday, and we are postponing the KYC SCORA Baltimore race from Saturday 5th to Sunday 6th FG 10.55. Hopefully, this will encourage more entries also".

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven’t put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full–time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

If everyone chipped in, we can enhance our coverage and our future would be more secure. You can help us through a small donation. Thank you.
