Plain sailing for 130th Regatta 19.08.09

THE 130th Moville Regatta was a great success again this year, according to the organisers. Despite some inclement weather all of the 11 races planned were sailed over the August Bank Holiday. The presentation of prizes was very well attended in the Caiseal Mara Hotel.
"There was great local support for the regatta and local businesses, Gillen's, Centra and The Point kindly donated sandwiches and refreshments," said committee member, John Steele.
"We thank all the local fishermen for the rescue support and also the Derry Harbour board and Loughs Agency. We also thank Garvin Meehan for doing flag ship on The Aishlin." The following are the results of Moville Regatta 2009:
