I like that 17 footer-
Was out there myself,
until we were forced to retire to the NW of Lambay,

Class 3?
Probably not a bad thing to happen!
We sneeked round Lambay with it dropping away heavily. The fetch up to Talbert was OK ish with some tide under you filling the sails, but Talbert to the finish against the tide and with patchy breeze was an absolute killer!
Didn’t get many my self either. One of those ‘nobody move’ kind of days.
