What
The ultimate NZ owner driver competition - no calling in the rockstar helmsman here - each boat must be driven by an owner. (yeah I know we all think we are rockstars).
Two divisions. Open fleet with current class certs racing for line. Restricted racing on corrected time.
Features typically very tight racing on windward leeward courses, a great atmosphere and lots of sponsors spot prizes (liquid and non) back at the host club BBYC after.

Where
Bucklands Beach Yacht Club with racing to be conducted in the waters bounded by Rangitoto Island, Browns Island and Bean Rock.
When
Target race day is Saturday November 12th but history has taught us that during spring we need flexibility hence weather reserve day on Sunday 13th. Competitors will be advised of a change as soon as possible in week prior if forecast indicates this will be necessary for best sailing.
What else?
