Summer Series: Harken-Fosters Kennedy Bay Yacht & Launch Race

4.00PM ONWARDS ON SHORE

Featuring Aaron Carpenter and his band, for dancing into the night.  A BBQ is available on shore – AND the Lewis’s fantastic L’Authentique sausages (real and vegan) will be on offer again for a gold coin donation – or bring your own steaks to cook.

LAUNCH RACE INSTRUCTIONS

There is a Mark Foy style race/cruise for those who like to nudge the throttle a wee bit, it’s a handicap event where the start time is generated from your vessels theoretical cruise speed with an allowance for lead feet at the start and finish.  When you enter you will be given a time to be at the start line – a line between Orakei Wharf and the yellow Orakei Racing Buoy.

When your start time appears on the GPS clock, go for it 🙂

More details emailed to the entrants closer to the day.

The goal is the launches racing/cruising all arrive at Kennedy Bay at a similar time, (assuming the handicapper has used the calculator properly).  Prizes in this instance for first, second and third over the line.

Entries and attendees to the onshore events please RSVP/enter with Joyce at admin@classicyacht.org.nz

And for a $20 entry fee you will go in the draw to win some fabulous spot prizes including vouchers from Harken-Fosters, but you must register so we have your boat name to go in the draw.
