22 boats competed in the last Water Wag race of the AIB DBSC season in Dun Laoghaire Harbour on Wednesday evening. 

The race was won by boat number 19 Shindilla, sailed by Ali and Zoe Kissane.

Number 15 (John O’Driscoll) was second with Con and Cathy MacAleavey third in Number 45.

The race brought the curtain down on the 2021 season that has seen some buoyant turnouts for the 133-year old class that has regular fleets of plus 20 boats and 31 for its Captain's Prize race held earlier this month.
