Dear Sailors,

On behalf of the Flag Officers and members of the Royal Cork Yacht Club, we are delighted, to invite Skippers and Crew from around the world to join us at Cork Week 2014.

As you are aware Cork Week is recognised as one of the premier regattas in Europe, and we are very proud to continue to host this event since its inception 36 years ago. We hope to welcome back many old friends who have been coming to Crosshaven for many years, and we are always delighted to welcome new competitors to our shores.

We are conscious of the economic environment we continue to find ourselves in, and in recognition of this we have decided to make a substantial reduction in our entry fee and have changed the format of the event to four days racing, Tuesday to Friday inclusive with Monday being a practice day.

Cork Week 2014 will still strive to include ten races and continue to offer you free berthage, free shore side entertainment and a free car parking space for the duration of the event. As always we will continue to offer you very competitive and varied racing area's throughout the week, and each day will bring new challenges, both on and off the water.

We look forward to extending a warm welcome to all sailors who come to visit and we wish you a very enjoyable and safe regatta.
