Light winds and fine weather prevail so far this week on Dublin Bay for the National Optimist Dinghy Training Week (NTW) at the Royal St. George Yacht Club at Dun Laoghaire.
Up to 100 youth sailors are participating in the mid-term event, which features a world-class coaching lineup with experienced coaches from the sailing world who provide guidance to participants on and off the water.
The event culminates in the Crosbie Cup and Halloween Regatta on Saturday, November 2nd.
