Welcome to Schull Harbour Sailing Club

With over 60 confirmed entries at present, the 2010 Calves Week in Schull, is expected to top the 80 boat mark for the annual West Cork festival of sailing. The week long sailing event is once again supported by the local business community together with sponsorship from Saab, Airtech Security and A&L Castors.

The ISA Yachtsman euromarine Rib Challenge is back and this year it’s even bigger and better than ever with more exciting prizes and a reduced entrance fee of just €50 for a Senior Team and a mere €25 for a Junior Team. With two Ribs up for grabs, not to mention a great day out for all involved, this event is an absolute must. You’ve got to be in it to win it!

The build up to Calves Week was evident in Schull Harbour over the weekend as the first of the western boats arrived from Galway, , together with fellow competitors from the east coast, many of whom combine a short cruise, before beefing up the crews for the first race from Schull to Baltimore on the August Bank holiday Sunday.

Big breeze and lumpy seas created some mind-boggling action at Cork Week on Day Three of racing. Torrential rain in the early morning, gave way to some sublime sunshine giving the competitors some classic Irish sailing along the rugged coastline. 15-18 Knots of breeze from the south with wind over tide, created a mogul-field of swell with waves nudging three metres at times.
