Regattas and Big Boat Racing

Regattas and Big Boat Racing

Allsail competes in many offshore races and major regattas each year as well as inshore racing series on Pittwater.

All racing and regattas are available in 2023 and 2024

See Allsail’s 2023/24 program below.

Our crews range from racers with years of experience to new sailors who have started as crew, learned fast and shared in the success.

Club members, students and casual sailors have a fantastic time as we race our yachts in Pittwater twilight series races in fleets of up to 80 yachts. Allsail yachts are regulars and winners at major regattas like the Sydney Harbour Regatta and Sail Port Stephens. Scroll down to see what’s on in 2023/24.
