An Appreciation of Clare Hogan

Clare Hogan, who sadly died on 10th April 2021, taken from us so prematurely, will be sorely missed by her sailing friends, particularly those of us in the Irish Dragon Class. She sailed from the Royal St George Yacht Club in Dun Laoghaire in her Dragons Aphrodite and Cloud .
Clare came from a sailing family where her brothers Peter, Neil and Tom are well-known sailors. Clare enjoyed success in her Cadet as a young teenager.
In College, she joined the UCD Sailing Club becoming a Committee member, where her efforts played no small part in reviving the Club and putting it back on a sound financial footing.
