Monkstown Bay Sailing Club will host its annual At Home regatta this weekend in Cork Harbour. The event will feature racing for Optimists and dinghy classes, with competitors taking to the water across Saturday's programme.

The Optimist fleet will get proceedings underway with the first gun at noon. Three short races are scheduled for the junior sailors. Classes 1 and 2 dinghies will then take to the course, with their first start scheduled for 2 pm. Two races are planned for the afternoon session.

Club organisers have reminded competitors that online registration is required in advance of racing. The At Home regatta is a longstanding fixture in the Monkstown Bay Sailing Club calendar and is expected to attract sailors from across Cork Harbour for a day of competitive racing.
