Apparently, "mobilising the Irish SB3 armada is undoubtedly the key to making the 2010 Worlds the 100-plus affair which everbody is hoping for" Y&Y Mar 10
So why do the World's start only 2 days after the end of the biggest regatta of the year in Ireland? That is the equivalent of running the Worlds 2 days after Cowes Week. Except that that most Irish boats will have to use that convenient little island to the east as a land bridge, which means two ferries and a very long drive. Something tells me that the Irish contingent will be small, if not inexistent at the Worlds. Has the Class Association shot itself in the foot? Gordon |

Sounds that way. Shouldn't this be in the keelboat section?
