There is an excellent interview with Ben McGrane about Ben & Keria's recent Mirror World Championship win on Yachts & Yachting.
52 boats including the reigning World Champion John & Beau Dransfield from Australia, UK National Champions, Ben & Keira McGrane, plus a host of other top sailors from Australia, South Africa & the UK, gathered at Sligo YC in the Republic of Ireland Mirror World Championships Nationals from 23rd to 29th July.
Racing was held in the mainly sheltered, if tidal, waters of Sligo Bay. The weather was perhaps typical for the west coast of Ireland with low pressure giving cool, mainly cloudy, often wet conditions, far from ideal for who opted to campervan or camp in the nearby site.

Team GB Worlds tops by Rooster, available in blue or white, are now available here https://www.roostersailing.com/collections/mirror-worlds-team-gb. It would be great to see plenty of the GB team wearing them in Sligo.
