NYC Nippers 2017

A big shout out goes to the Dun Laoghaire fire brigade who provided the star attraction on the last night. Their visit to the NYC gave each Nipper a chance to take the wheel of a real fire engine and turns at sounding the (very loud!) sirens. Now that was an experience that will take some beating!

We hope that many of our 2017 Nippers will return next year to build on their sailing skills and rekindle the friendships they made over the last six weeks. Anyone interested in taking part in the Nippers 2018, look out for registration forms that will be posted in April 2018.
