Hi all, In just over 24 hours, we've managed to get nearly 1000 signatures from sailors who want to see dinghy sailing in Dun Laoghaire harbour, Dublin preserved. We only need 60 more signatures to hit 1000. Please think about supporting us here: https://www.change.org/p/dun-laoghaire-harbour-company-save-dun-laoghaire-dinghy-sailing Thanks, Peter

Agree 100% with this. Massive cruisers with all-in packages will do very little for the local economy, and will obliterate views of Dublin Bay as well as split the harbour.
Here's an idea of the scale of this monstrosity -- smack in the middle of a historic harbour that up until now has been an amazing sailing resource.  https://www.change.org/p/dun-laoghaire-harbour-company-save-dun-laoghaire-dinghy-sailing" rel="nofollow - https://www.change.org/p/dun-laoghaire-harbour-company-save-dun-laoghaire-dinghy-sailing |
