Mark your diaries to join the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron’s Big Day of Sailing on Saturday 12 October.
Bring your mates for a fun day of sailing, and volunteer your boat so that new sailors can get involved and share the love of the sport! This fun-filled day is also a great chance for anyone over the age of 14 to come along and try sailing for just $30pp.
The sailing action starts at the Squadron at 11am with participants
returning back to the dock around 3:30pm.
After a fun race on the Waitemata Harbour, join us back at the Dinghy Locker for food stations and live music. Then stick around to catch all the action in the first races of the 37th America’s Cup starting at 1am showing LIVE on the BIG SCREEN.
For kids aged 6-16 years, RNZYS is hosting a Big Sleep In at the squadron where kids can watch movies, feast on fish and chips, popcorn and other treats, with games and activities for children/teens and their parents to enjoy. After a few hours’ sleep, all will be up at 12:30am to watch the first races of the 37th America’s Cup. Numbers are strictly limited. $40 per person includes dinner and snacks. (A minimum of 1 adult is required to attend with all children/teens).
The Yacht Sales Co. team will be at the event, so make sure you say hello and find out how we can help you with all your boating needs.
