Congratulations to Atlee Kohl of RCYC who has won the 2018 Junior Irish Sailing All Ireland Sailing Championships in Dun Laoghaire.

With 1 point between the top three boats, first and second place were decided on a tie-breaker, with a nail-biting last race seeing Atlee Kohl snatching the title from last year's winner Micheal O'Suilleabhain. Tom Higgins came in third place just one point behind after seven races.

Sixteen nominees from various different Irish Sailing affiliated classes competed in the event in the Royal St George Yacht Club, using a fleet of Fireflys. Racing took place both inside and outside the harbour, with gusts inside the harbour today of up to 30 knots.

Overall Results:

1st Atlee Kohl (RCYC) & Jonathan O'Shaugnessy
2nd Micheal O'Suilleabhain (Kinsale YC) & Michael Carroll
3rd Tom Higgins & Henry Higgins (RStGYC)
1st Girl, Alana Coakley (RStGYC) & Ellie Cunnaine

As always, a huge thank you to the volunteer team who worked tirelessly behind the scenes. Full results of the event are available on the Irish Sailing website here.
