19 boats of from all over Ireland gathered at Cullaun Co. Clare over the weekend of 5-6th November for the last event of the busy year that was 2022 with the GP14 Munster Championship at stake.
A super turn out of crews from all generations and family combinations from Cullaun, Skerries, Sutton, Tralee, Newtownards, Sligo, Greystones, and Blessington. Unlike last year's Baltic weather at similar events in late autumn, the weather this time was very pleasant, warm, and mild, so much so that there were no reported capsizes or troublesome abandonments.
There were some great family rivalries throughout the event with family members competing across all fleets. Rob Lee showed his old man how to do it in the gold fleet with Sam Street in the silver and Denis Cully and Daithi and Aaron Murphy in the bronze, doing the same.
Special thanks for the tremendous hospitality to all Cullaun members, families and friends for the accommodation, food, chauffeuring, security, rescue and of course our race officers David Vinnell and Aoife Lyons.
Overall, the results from a terrific, competitive, friendly and entertaining event of tight races are:
Gold 1 - Colman Grimes & John Chambers (Skerries)
Gold 2 - Robert Lee & Stephen Lynch (Greystones)
Gold 3 - Norman Lee & Alan Leddy (Greystones)
Silver 1 - Conor Galligan & Adam Leddy (Greystones)
Silver 2 - Sam Street & Josh Lloyd (Blessington)
Silver 3 - Simon Cully & Libby Tierney (Blessington)
Bronze 1 - Denis Cully & Oisin Geraghty (Blessington)
Bronze 2 - Max Cully & Tadgh Wardell (Blessington)
Bronze 3 - Des McMahon & Pat Biesty (Cullaun)
Leading Youth - Conor Galligan & Adam Leddy (Greystones)
