Congratulations to all our racing members who have won a prize racing in Dublin Bay this season!
It has been a very testing season for both Dublin Bay Sailing Club and our racing members but 2021 will be a more active one for sure and 2022 will no doubt see a full return of our local racing calendar!!

Fergal Keane, RTÉ to host live chat with top professional sailors
– Tom Dolan
– Annalise Murphy
– Damian Foxall
– Dr. Kate Kirby (top sports psychologist)
Sports psychology has traditionally been viewed as only having application to high performance or professional sports. However, many of the techniques in sport psychology have just as much relevance for recreational athletes and also can be applied to our personal and professional lives. We will hear from these professional sailors about their approach to sport psychology and how resilience forms an essential part of this.

To answer the many queries that members may have regarding what is allowed to take place in the Club under Covid Level 5 restrictions, please download this pdf document and nearly more importantly read the FAQs from Irish Sailing here:
Application for platform parking for dinghies this winter is now online. Please use the form here to apply and pay.
Dinghies taking part in either the junior training sessions or the DMYC Frostbite racing series must complete this form prior to bringing their boats back on the platform.
Please note that platform parking DOES NOT REOPEN before Saturday 31st October as the boathouse still has to lift many keelboats on trailers and position them on the platform post our main lift-out on Saturday 24th October.
Thanking you in advance for your understanding
