ATLANTA Olympian Dan O'Grady emerged overall winner of the Dun Laoghaire Harbour Skiff event at the weekend after a gruelling four race series hosted by the Royal St George Yacht Club.

However. the former Soling sailor only won after the tie break gave him the win over Mike Evans on A Wear for more first places in the event.

The recently introduced B14 Skiff was the most favoured although former Mirror class champion Mel Collins put in a strong performance in a International 14 and finished fourth overall behind Maurice O'Connell on Electrolux who had been Saturday's over night leader.
