Results / Irish Nationals Killaloe Sailing Club - 21/08/2026
Killaloe Sailing Club welcomed the Irish RS fleet back to Co. Clare from 21-23 August, with the RS400s, RS200s and RS Fevas sharing the club and the broad waters of southern Lough Derg.
For three days, Killaloe Sailing Club became a busy RS championship base: 63 boats ashore, three fleets racing on Lough Derg, competitors camping around the club, and sailors from across Ireland and Northern Ireland sharing the same event.
Congratulations to Chris Helme and Alan Claffey, Thomas and Ben Chaix, and Ben and Lewis McCaldin on becoming the 2026 RS Irish National Champions, and to every competitor who made the journey to Killaloe.
