The President’s Cup and Hansa Nationals 17th & 18THAugust
The Royal St George Yacht Club are hosting the President’s Cup and Hansa Nationals 17th & 18TH August 2019. The President’s Cup and Hansa Nationals (inaugurated by Paralympian John Twomey) is an Irish interprovincial regatta. This year the provinces will comprise teams of 2 squibs, a Hansa and a 2.4m sailed by athletes from Sailability and WeSail. Some may have buddies. This is the major national event for Sailability with two fleets. We aim to make it a memorable weekend for both the 30 plus competitors and for the club. Come on down during the weekend to see some of the action! We would also be grateful to any member who would be prepared to volunteer to do one of the many tasks be it shoreside, crewing a rib or helping behind the scenes. Volunteer instructors and buddies to go out with some of the competitors are needed. Contact ianafrench2@gmail.com or cjhenman@gmail.com
