On the weekend of the 5th & 6th of September ULAC hosted the National multi hull championships. Boats and crews came from all over Ireland and the UK to test themselves in their super fast craft on the waters of Lough derg. With strong gusty winds and heavy rain the crews were certainly tested, as were the rescue crews. Below are some pics of the weekends action.
