Hi  

We are on the eve of the last ISORA races in 2020 - what a strange season but we did it. Many thanks to the back-room team for making racing possible and congratulations to all competitors for following our protocols, both in Ireland and Wales.

The Covid-19 re-boot programme provided 2 Coastal races both with 4 races each and two Offshore Series with 4 offshores in Ireland and 4 in Wales.

A total of 16 races 

The Irish and Wales Offshore Series will be scored with the best 5 out of a possible total of 8 races on each side of the Irish Sea.

The races on Saturday are high point scoring being weighted at 1.3. This means that both series hangs on the performance on the final race in Dun Laoghaire and Pwllheli.

Good luck to all and keep safe.

Hwyl
