New York Yacht Club's Volvo 70 Wizard is the latest - and largest - entry into June's Irish offshore classic Volvo Dun Laoghaire to Dingle Race.
Entered by well-known Irish offshore sailor Johnny Mordaunt, the 2016 winner of the Sydney-Hobart Race brings the race fleet to 20 so far for the 270-mile race.
Mordaunt, who most recently campaigned the Fast40+ Tschuss at 2022 Antigua Sailing Week, will certainly make a splash when the VO70 starts off Dun Laoghaire Harbour on the 30th anniversary of the race.
The race starts from Dun Laoghaire on June 7th and is scheduled to arrive in Dingle Harbour on June 9th and 10th.
Wizard won't be the only New York entry on the D2D startline either, with Ron O'Hanley's Cookson 50 Privateer also heading to County Kerry.
