The Dublin Bay 21 footer yacht is a one-design wooden sailing boat designed for sailing in Dublin Bay. The seven yachts were designed by Alfred Mylne and built between 1903 and 1906 under a commission from the old Dublin Bay Sailing Club to encourage inexpensive one-design racing in recognotion of the success of the Water Wag one-design of 1887 and the Colleen Class of 1897. They may be the oldest class of racing keelboat yacht in the world.〔(Kilkenny City Online )〕 The first race took place on 19 June 1903 in Dublin Bay.〔The Twenty-Ones and the Joyce of Sailing by Fionan de Barra〕 ==List of boats== The seven sisters * Estelle built by Hollwey, 1903. * Garavogue built by Kelly, 1903. * Innisfallen built by Hollwey, 1903. * Maureen built by Hollwey, 1903. * Oola built by Kelly, 1905. * Naneen built by Clancy, 1905. * Geraldine built by Hollwey, 1908.

The fleet were taken out of the water in 1986 after Hurricane Charley ruined active Dublin Bay 21 fleet racing in August of that year. Two 21s sank in the storm, suffering the same fate as their sister ship Estelle four years earlier.〔(Class of 21 deserves some loving care )〕 It is said that these boats present one of the loveliest sights to be seen on any sailing waters in the world.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Dublin Bay 21 footer yacht is a one-design wooden sailing boat designed for sailing in Dublin Bay.The seven yachts were designed by Alfred Mylne and built between 1903 and 1906 under a commission from the old Dublin Bay Sailing Club to encourage inexpensive one-design racing in recognotion of the success of the Water Wag one-design of 1887 and the Colleen Class of 1897.
