The superyacht Gitana briefly visited Dublin Bay on Saturday afternoon (July 20th).

The Cayman Island flagged 45-metre sloop motored into Dublin Bay and anchored off Dun Laoghaire Harbour at teatime.

The Dubois design only stayed for a few hours before motoring out of the Bay, returning to the Irish Sea, and heading north to Greenock in Scotland.

The sleek design can accommodate up to eight guests in four staterooms with six crew members.
