The Class Captain of the Sigma 33 East Coast Association is reporting a bumper entry of 20 'Early Bird' entries received from 14 different clubs for June's Dublin Bay Chmpionships at the Royal St. George Yacht Club

'The entries to date reflect strong interest in Sigma 33 sailing', class chief Paddy Maguire told Afloat.ie. 

As Afloat.ie previously reported, a fleet of 25 boats – and possibly more now – is expected to gather from Northern Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales.

This weekend, the regatta's Notice of Race was amended in order to extend the date for receipt of Early Bird Entries to next Wednesday (March 21st).

The class and Irish Championships are being held in the Royal St George Yacht Club from 22nd – 24 June 2018.
