The Royal North of Ireland Yacht Club is delighted to be hosting this year's GP14 Hot Toddy Weekend, sponsored by Bushmills.

This is an annual Event hosted by various Yacht Clubs throughout Ireland. This year the Organisers are expecting around 30 GP14's. Apart from the Royal North Home Fleet of GP14's, visiting GP's are expected from Sutton, Blessington, Howth, Moville, Lough Erne, Strangford Lough, and at least one boat making the trip from England.

This will be a highly competitive fleet will some of the resident boats on home waters expected to do well, however given the quality of the visitors attending they will have a lot to do!

Six races are scheduled, with three races each day. Current weather forecast is favourable for the Event although Sunday could get a little spicy!

Racing starts this Saturday at Cultra.
