SailCork celebrates 35 years training afloat!

  From humble beginnings in 1974 "Eddie English's Sailing School" grew to "Cork Harbour Sail Training Centre"  to "International Sailing Centre" to "International Sailing"and finally to "SailCork"! Our blog will tell our story remembering the "bad old days" in Cobh. From dinghy sailing racing from the  "Town Clock Slip" to the National Windsurfing Championships to cruiser delivery trips from Europe and the UK to West Cork sailing fun and great times in Cobh.

Follow our story on line and if you are part of our past come and celebrate our 35th birthday with us! If you are a past pupil or instructor or one of our good friends we want to hear your sailing stories and if you want to be part of our celebrations on May 22-24 contact us immediately for your invitation!
