The battle for the In-Port Race Trophy went down to the wire with Saturday's Discover Ireland In-Port Race set to decide what has been a gripping series. See the full replay of the final InPort Race, which decided the final winner of the InPort Trophy, and could have decided the second and third placegetters.

After nine inshore races in the host ports along the route, four teams are still in with a shot of glory when the fleet takes to the water one last time on Saturday, with Galway Bay providing the arena for the final showdown.

Going into the race, Camper with Emirates Team New Zealand topped the table with 39 points, tied with Puma Ocean Racing

Just one point behind sat Groupama, who secured overall victory in the round-the-world race with a second-place finish in Leg 9 from Lorient to Galway, Ireland.

Four points off the pace are Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing, who along with Groupama have won the most in-port races with three apiece.
