#Mirror - Ben Graf and Hannah Smith of Lough Ree Yacht Club topped the table at the 2017 Mirror Eastern Championships in Clontarf last weekend.

The duo pipped their club-mates Caolan Croasdell and Alexander Farrell in a reversal of their fortunes at the Mirror Worlds a month ago, where they placed 15th and 13th respectively as the best of the Irish in Falmouth.

Oscar Langan and Lughaidh Croasdell (CY&BC/Lough Ree YC) made it a top-three shutout for the Shannon sailing club. Full results can be found on the Mirror Sailing Ireland Facebook page.

Clontarf Yacht & Boat Club hosted the six races over the weekend of Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 August, as previously reported on Afloat.ie.

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.
