Melges 15 Demo Boat Reaches Lough Ree Yacht Club

Lough Ree Yacht Club has been the first Melges15 demo boat tour stop. One of the M15s is touring her way around the country over the Summer.

Nearing the end of her time at Lough Ree, the boat has been sailed in all conditions, including strong winds and flat seas, a good recipe for speed records.

John Malone and John McGonigle wasted no time (below) putting the boat through her paces, hitting over 18 knots of boatspeed after just taking the boat out of the wrapper.
