J109 GTR beating up the shore to stay out of the tide shortly after the start of the Harbour Race of Cork Week 2024. With over 100 boats on the start line everyone was fighting for air shortly after the start, with the tide coming in all day it paid to get right early to find both clear air and some relief from the stronger tide out in the main channel. The skipper on RS 21 Dark and Stormy was not happy with the call as they wanted to head in further, we are glad they tacked when they did as we got down to less the 3 feet under the keel shortly after the tack. The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you like this short clip from our week of racing at Volvo Cork Week 2024

A few year back we had a great trip from East Down Yacht Club to Peel harbour, our Mumm 36 eat up the waves surfing all the way over. We did the trip in under 4 hours which was a record crossing for team GTR. The crew worked hard to keep the boat on an even keel trimming the sails all the way as we enjoyed the sled rid in the surf. The sea in the Irish Sea was perfectly matched to the sea state allowing us to wiggle up and down the waves with ease. The trip back home was a little harder, pounding head on into the waves was not nearly as fun as the surfing them on the way over. Hopefully you are enjoying the short the team at bottom up boats is pulling pulling together and it is giving you a taste of the content you can find on the full channel.
