Irish yacht takes on the world in Chesapeake Bay
Diarmuid Foley, from the Royal Cork Yacht Club, the 2001 British Mumm 30 title holder, is to challenge, the second year running, for the Champagne Mumm 30 World Championship at Annapolis Yacht Club, Maryland, USA, on September 25-28.
He already competed successfully in last year’s World Championship in Sardinia, as well as several other events in the Mumm 30 series and he says he is not travelling to America just to make up the numbers: “No, we have a good crew and good experience on board, so without doubt we will be trying to win this championship.”
