#sb20 – A gentle force 2 North Easterly tested the nerves of the SB20 fleet on Dublin Bay this evening in an increasingly treacherous flooding tide. 9 boats made it out to the start line this evening making it a new season record and it is very encouraging to see the numbers continue to build as we head into June writes Michael O'Connor.

A fairly square line was set (based on the fact that half the fleet maintain it was a committee boat bias and the other half of the fleet claim it was a pin end bias, we are just going to sit on the fence and say it was square!) and the boats were clean away at the first time of asking. A short beat to the centre of the bay with neither side of the beat proving heavily favoured meant that things were going to be fairly lively at the weather mark and it certainly didnt disappoint with Alert Packaging (Justin, Darren et al) coming in from the left and squeezing in ahead of Manamana (Doug, Ronan and Catriona) coming in from the right followed by a tightly packed bunch including SacreBleu (Richard, Ben and Matt), Bad (Jimmy Downling et al), Rubadubdub (Nick et al), Should Be... (Michael, Dave and Gavan), Probably (Ian, Mark and Caroline) and Smoke on the Water (Bob, John et al).

A broad reach to mark 2 with the tide pushing the fleet above the mark meant that the boats were walking a tightrope between going low enough to avoid a gybe back against the tide and high enough to protect their air. At the second mark, Alert held onto their lead from Manamana followed by SacreBleu. A tight reach (bleeuugh!) to mark 3 ensued (in fairness our first this year I think) so we will just fast forward beyond mark 3 because nothing ever happens in an SB on a tight reach! The beat from mark 3 was a tricky affair with patchy wind covering Dublin Bay meaning finding the puffs was essential with big gains and losses to be made on the beat. Probably made a storming surge up the beat getting herself into 4th place at mark 4, comfortably overtaking both Should Be... and Rubadubdub. Meanwhile, the first three boats were having a great tussle and Manamana refused to let Alert Packaging sail off into the sunset and SacreBleu clinging on to Manamana to set up a grandstand finish.

Another broad reach ensured that these boats compacted even further and some tense moments up the last beat followed. In the end, Alert Packaging held their nerve and grabbed the win by approximately 20 seconds from Manamana with SacreBleu a similar distance behind in third. Probably unfortunately couldn't get back in touch with the top three but took 4th comfortably from Should Be... with Rubadubdub 6th, Smoke on the water 7th, Bad 8th and Venuesworld (Rory et al) who had started late, closing worryingly close to the earlier starters in 9th.

After sailing, 19 sailors and friends gathered for the first SB social of the year in the NYC. A few pints were followed by a very pleasant sailing supper in the dining room of the NYC. Great value at €20 for starter, maincourse and tea/coffee. Although most didn't seem quite ready to let loose in typical SB20 style before the bank holiday weekend, there was plenty of banter and it was great to see such a good turnout. Thanks go to James Gorman for organising the event in the NYC. There will be an SB-Social dinner after sailing on the last Thursday of each month rotating around the clubs. Next up is the RStGYC on the last Thursday in June. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Finally, a special mention is due for both Billy Riordan and Lorcan Burke who manned the line on Tuesday night, fulfilling our DBSC requirement for the year.

#beneteau21 – The Beneteau 21 (B21) class association, which caters for owners of Beneteau 210, 211 and 21.7 boats is hosting an open day in Dun Laoghaire on June 7th. The new 'Dublin Bay 21' class featured in Winkie Nixon's sailing blog on Afloat.ie last season.

The B21 is emerging as a strong one design class where the racing is friendly and the ownership costs are low. The boast are versatile, being a good compromise between racing and weekend cruising.

The objectives of the open day are twofold. The first is to give people with a little sailing experience a chance to race on the Beneteau 21 and they might then become regular crew on one of the boats. The second is to give prospective owners and owners who don't currently race the opportunity to try out racing in a low pressure environment.

The format for the day is:

Meet 09:45 at the Dun Laoghaire Marina.
10:00 Briefing
10:30 Introductory sail on a Beneteau 21.
12:00 Raft up for lunch in the Royal St George Yacht Club
13:00 Leave to compete in the afternoon DBSC race (weather permitting)
17:00 Debriefing and a pint!

There is no charge for the day, however we are asking people to register by texting your name and email address to 087 1228665.

#fireball – Six Fireballs came under starter's orders for the Tuesday Night Series last night, under the burgee of the Dublin Bay Sailing Club writes Cormac Bradley. They encountered a different weather scenario than was predicted. The website providing weather details for Dun Laoghaire Harbour was suggesting that winds of 10 knots were the order of the evening with gusts up to 15.7, from a southerly direction (171˚), in a temperature of 13˚. XCWeather was offering a forecast at 19:00 of SSE 11 knots, with gusts of 17 knots and an air temperature of 14˚.
This correspondent was sitting shore-side again, courtesy of a broken mast from the previous Saturday, and from my perspective the temperature was nothing like the 13 - 14˚ that was being suggested. At the post-mortem in the DMYC afterwards, contestants said there was quite a bit of wind on the course together with a rather confused sea.
Making their 2014 debut were Dave Coleman and Glenn Fisher (14740) who made a late arrival at the start area where the Race Committee had set a 3-lap Windward- Leeward course, with a spreader mark at the top of the course and the weather mark located off the rocks at the 40-foot bathing spot. The other participants were the "usual suspects" – Noel Butler & Stephen Oram (15061), Cariosa Power & Marie Barry (14854), Neil Colin & Margaret Casey (14775), Frank Miller & Joe O'Reilly (14713), Louise McKenna & Hermine O'Keeffe (14691).
Dave & Glenn were too early for the start signal at the pin end of the line which left that position to the devices of Butler and Colin respectively. The balance of the fleet was distributed along the line and the fleet all headed out to sea to avail of the ebbing tide. In truth, the race was won in this initial phase of the "half-beat" between the start line and the weather mark, because when Noel & Stephen made the first tack to go inshore towards the weather mark they had a comfortable distance between themselves and the chasing pack.
The rounding sequence thereafter was Miller & O'Reilly, Colin & Casey, Louise & Hermine, Dave & Glenn and Cariosa & Marie. Initially the fleet stayed on the RHS of the run to the leeward mark before Butler & Oram gybed inshore and then gybed back again to leave them sailing a parallel course to their pursuers but on an inshore line. This double gybe tactic seemed to allow Miller & O'Reilly to close the gap in terms of straight line distance. McKenna actually took the most inshore route to the leeward mark.
From a place changing perspective there is little more to be reported on – the fleet followed a simple and similar approach to the beats – sail the leeward half of the beat inshore before taking a tack out to sea and tailor-making their approach to the windward mark.
However, a partial systems failure for Miller & O'Reilly – a slipping main halyard – rendered the profile of their main to a partially reefed main and allowed Colin & Casey to pass them on the final run to secure second position on the night.

DBSC Tuesday Night Series: Series 1, 20th May 2014
1 Noel Butler & Stephen Oram 15061 NYC
2 Neil Colin & Margaret Casey 14775 DMYC
3 Frank Miller & Joe O'Reilly 14713 DMYC

At the start of the DBSC season an amendment to the Sailing Instructions was issued that stated that boats could not pass through the start/finish line during the race. From my shore-side observance, this rule amendment didn't appear to have effect last night..........which makes the declared results on the website all the more interesting.

In overall terms, after four Tuesdays, Messrs Butler & Oram enjoy a four-point lead over Neil Colin & Margaret Casey who, in turn, are a point ahead of Cariosa Power & Marie Barry.
