The Irish Sailing League 2026 will take place from 18–19 April at the Royal Irish Yacht Club in Dún Laoghaire.
Racing will be contested in identical J80 one-design keelboats. Each team will consist of five mixed-gender sailors representing their home club. The event features short, high-intensity races lasting just 15 minutes. Racing is umpired, and all boats are included in the entry fee.
“Teams will compete in up to 30 races across the weekend,” said an event spokesperson. “There will be minimal downtime, with continuous action on the water.”
One or two teams will rotate off each round, ensuring fast turnarounds and sustained racing pressure.
All boats will be supplied and rigged by the Irish National Sailing & Powerboat School. This levels the playing field, with results based solely on teamwork, tactics, and crew skill.
Entry is limited to 10 teams, with only a few places remaining. Interested clubs are encouraged to register promptly to secure a place.
