National Yacht Club

WICKLOW SAILING CLUB recently announced that it will again host the ROUND IRELAND Yacht Race, one of Europe’s major yacht racing events, starting at Wicklow Harbour on 28th June 2014, for the 18th time since the biennial 705 mile non-stop race around of our island first took place in 1980. WSC are also pleased to announce that they have entered an agreement with the Royal Irish Yacht Club, Dun Laoghaire, to be the associate club which will provide opportunity for the expansion of our ROUND IRELAND to include the bigger boats which Wicklow Harbour is unable to accommodate. This agreement will provide a Dublin base for pre-race inspections, with the facilities of marina, accommodation, parking, storage & clubhouse amenities which would likely be required for the expansion envisaged for the future.
