Lasers are dominating Class 1 of Monkstown Bay Sailing Club’s August dinghy league.

Philip Doherty in his Laser Radial has built a five-point lead on a total of 5 after four races sailed at the time of writing, with Judy Moynihan and Therese Loesberg second in their Laser II on 10 points. Third is John Moynihan, in another Laser, just one point behind on 11.

Isobel and Tim O’Connor, in their Mirror on 3 points from three first placings in the four races sailed, are again topping Class 2, which they won last month. Ellen and Ayda Bruen in their RS Feva XL are in close pursuit on five points.
