Imp and Mouse have won the Impala and Sonata Open Event (ISOE) respectively at East Down Yacht Club today. EDYC hosted the five race weekend event – three races on Saturday 27 May and two on Sunday 28 May 2023. The first four races were windward / leeward and the final race was around the fixed Strangford Lough racing marks.

“A very successful event; a wind shift on the first day added fun to it. Breezy enough on the second day.” Keith Carr, EDYC Commodore
