New app for Sailing; Sail Robin

Member John Sheehy has just built a new app for sailing; Sail Robin.  From the day sailor, to the round the cans sailor, to the one design sailor, there’s  something for everyone.  

The app plots your course, tracks every sail, replays your performance, gives you the tools to coach yourself better, and connects you with the sailing community. It also allows you to upload your data from other devices such as a garmin watch or a vakaros.  The Sail Robin ‘Flight school’ can run the analytics on this data also.

It includes all the DBSC course cards, and for this weekend, it even includes the Regatta Course Card.  Just select the course,  start the timer, the app will do the rest…  

See sailrobin.com for more or contact john@sailrobin.com

29er Nationals Report

As summer looked like it might finally have arrived the 29er National Championships kicked off in the Royal St. George Yacht Club from the 19^th to 21^st June 2026, supported by Covy Watersport and Irish Sailing.

With 10 teams, all relatively new to the fleet, they competed with the mix of conditions only Dublin Bay could throw at them.

To allow time for travelling teams, some of whom were still sitting state exams a late start and only two races were planned for Friday. A full card of 5 races was achieved on Saturday once the sea breeze kicked in and on Sunday light airs allowed for a further 3 to make up a competitive 10 race series.

Race Officer Barry O’Neill wasted no time in turning around the races. His team were busy as this highly competitive class saw some of the boats finishing within in seconds of each other.

First time 29er eventers Julian O’Leary and Dillon Kennedy (RStGYC) claimed the top Boys team with some very consistent sailing. Another set of newcomers to the class Emily and Annabel Ridout (Ballyholme YC) picked up the best the top Rookie team, showing that their strong Feva abilities translate nicely in to the skiff class.

Gemma Brady and Grace Keating (NYC & LDYC) took home a silver Irish Sailing medal in second place followed closely by Lousie Hanley and Sebastian Wright (YC) in third.

The standout team of the event was Juliet Ryan & Ella Rock (RStGYC) with 11 points from 10 races they were always going to be hard to catch. Their results saw them take home not only 2 Irish Sailing medals as overall National Champions and Women’s National Champions but also the u17 National Championship prize.

In a weekend that had plenty of sun, swimming and burgers on the deck in the George on Saturday it was a good showcase for double handed sailing in youth fleets as there could be. The 29er fleet will look to build on the success of the National Championships and with the standard of sailing on show it is clear evidence that the fleet is moving in the right direction.

Next up for some of the sailors is the World Championships in Kiel, Germany. Having previously qualified at the Youth Nationals in April in Ballyholme YC and the Eastern Championships in NYC in May, Juliet & Ella, Gemma & Grace and Louise & Seb leave for Germany next weekend.  

Meanwhile the rest of the fleet will have their eyes on Double Ree which runs on the 25/26 July.

Cannonball Trophy in Cowes

Dun Laoghaire team triumphs after 12-race showdown against Royal London and Royal Netherlands clubs

The Royal St George Yacht Club emerged victorious at the 2026 Cannonball Team Racing Trophy following a highly competitive weekend of racing in Cowes, Isle of Wight.

Hosted by the Royal London Yacht Club, the annual event brought together teams from the Royal St George Yacht Club, the Royal Netherlands Yacht Club and the Royal London Yacht Club for two days of close-fought racing in Osborne Bay. The racing took place beneath the magnificent backdrop of Osborne House, Queen Victoria’s former seaside residence, which overlooks the eastern Solent and provided a spectacular setting for the competition.

A total of 12 races were sailed over the weekend, with the Royal St George team delivering a consistently strong performance throughout the series. Recording six race victories, the Dun Laoghaire sailors secured overall victory and lifted the Cannonball Trophy after one of the most closely contested editions of the event in recent years.

Representing the Royal St George Yacht Club were Peter Bowring, John O’Connor, Max Treacy, Adam Smyth, Marcus Pearson, Tim Pearson, Neil Hegarty and Charlie Bolger. The team demonstrated the tactical awareness, teamwork and boat handling that are the hallmarks of successful team racing, combining experience and composure to stay ahead of their rivals across the weekend.

The Cannonball Trophy has become a valued fixture in the team racing calendar, fostering strong sporting ties and friendly rivalry between the three historic yacht clubs. While competition on the water was intense, the event also reflected the camaraderie and shared passion for sailing that continues to underpin the long-standing relationship between the participating clubs.

For the Royal St George Yacht Club, the victory represents another notable success in team racing and adds the Cannonball Trophy to an increasingly impressive list of achievements in the discipline.
