Hear many stories culled from the archives of the world’s oldest yacht club, Royal Cork Yacht Club (RCYC), dating back to at least 1720, as told by Dr Paul, including how the club came to be and how it developed over the years from Kinsale to Haulbowline to Cobh and finally Crosshaven. Other stories that tie into and connect with RCYC include Austrian Emperors of Mexico, American 1st World War destroyers and the kindly German U-Boat commanders that destroyed them, as well as many other vignettes that illustrate the wealth of history and prestige connected with the club.Volvo Cork Week returns to the Royal Cork Yacht Club in Crosshaven from the 10th to 15th of July.
