Irish Radial sailors showing their strength with Annalise already back up to speed having swapped back from the 49erFX to the Laser Radial in which she won an Olympic Silver medal at Rio.
And look to the future with Eve McMahon following her winning ways having won the ILCA Laser Radial Youth World Championships in Kingston, Canada last summer.
And remember it was Aoife Hopkins and Aisling Kelleher who have qualified Ireland to sail at Tokyo Olympics this summer.
Just need some Northern talent to join in the fun - maybe we'll see some stars emerge this summer at the Laser Radial Youth Europeans at Ballyholme in July to start their journey towards Paris 2024.
