LOOT AT ANNIVERSARY REGATTA

The prize pool features a $1,000 Early Bird cash prize for one lucky person who enters the regatta before the end of the year. Spot prizes to be given away include a holiday in Hawaii, a 10-day voyage on the Spirit of New Zealand and a Viking kayak.

The Hawaiian holiday prize includes return flights for two people with Hawaiian Airlines, airport transfers courtesy of Hawaii Tourism, and four night’s stay in the luxurious Equus Hotel in sunny Honolulu.

Young sailors (aged between 16 and 18 when they take part in the regatta) can enter to win a voyage (worth $3,500) on the youth development vessel Spirit of New Zealand.

Burnsco has come on board as a sponsor this year, offering a Viking Lagoon youth kayak worth $499, plus other prizes totalling over $500. Winners will be drawn at the regatta’s prizegiving ceremony at the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron on Tuesday 18 February, 2020.
