More than 100 racing vessels and an accompanying fleet of spectator craft, depart the Waitemata on a Friday afternoon. Managed by the Devonport Yacht Club, the boats race north up the east coast, arriving in the relatively well protected bay on dusk, at Mahurangi.

Having anchored that night the sailing fleet prepares for the Saturday Regatta Race held around Te Haupa Island and the small harbour. A large Launch Parade kicks off Saturday morning boating events with a running commentary from the beach as Launches motor past close to shore. The day concludes with a band and bbq in a marquee on the beach. More Information HERE
