Sailing Schedule

There are three main race series through the year.  They are run by the Dun Laoghaire Motor Yacht Club in the winter and by the Dublin Bay Sailing Club in the summer.

There may be other regattas every now and then, but these are the main ones.
  1. DMYC Frostbites. Every Sunday from early November until late March. First Gun at 13:57
  2. DBSC Tuesday Series. Every Tuesday from mid April until late August.  First Gun19.00
  3. DBSC Sunday Series. Every Saturday from late April or early May until late September. First Gun 14.15
All the year's events, including the regattas, are shown in the Google calendar at the bottom of this page.

As there's more information, it'll be added. You can synchronize your own calendar with this, if you like.  We'll try to include things like coaching sessions, dinners, etc., throughout the year.

Race Courses

Each of the different series has its own main race area.
  1. Inside Dun Laoghaire Harbor
    • Used in the winter Frostbites and sometimes on Tuesday evenings in the summer
    • Also will be used predominantly on Saturdays in the summer.
      DBSC's plan for 2017 is for two short, sharp races in the harbour at 2.15pm
  2. Scotsman's Bay
    • This is the default for Tuesday evening racing in the summer
  3. Outside Dun Laoghaire harbor
    • Occasionally for the frostbites, possibly in the summer if the harbour is not chosen
