About the Centre

Dublin Bay Sailing Club is the largest yacht-racing organisation on the Irish east coast. With seventeen hundred members, the Club provides regular weekly racing for upwards of 400 yachts, ranging from ocean-going forty footers to small dinghies for juniors.

The Club operates from Dun Laoghaire, a major marine recreational centre and ferry port six miles to the south of Dublin. The members are drawn for the most part from the four local yacht clubs and Dun Laoghaire Marina but visiting yachts can participate in racing if they complete the Club's temporary yacht entry and membership form and pay a small fee. Visiting yachts may also compete in the Club's Cruiser Challenge, held every year over the third weekend of August. Apart from a Starter's Hut on Dun Laoghaire West Pier, the Club possesses no premises; moorings - the usual onshore facilities are provided by the local yacht clubs. The new Dun Laoghaire Marina, situated in the northwestern side of the Harbour, now accommodates a growing number of racing yachts.
