The Annual General Meeting of Bay of Islands Sailing Week will be held at 5pm, Tuesday 30th June in the OCC clubrooms. This is an open meeting and all with an interest in the regatta are warmly invited to attend.

Get your CRC Bay of Islands Sailing Week entry in before the end of the year and go in the draw to WIN!

We’re pleased to announce Bay of Islands Sailing Week has again been selected to host the IRC Nationals, along with the PHRF Nationals and Tornado Nationals, in 2020. However, due to the difficulty we’ve had securing enough boats to race under IRC certificates in the past, this may well be our last ditch attempt to host IRC Nationals in NZ. So we strongly encourage anyone who wants to see IRC racing in NZ continue to get your IRC certificate sorted before BOISW 2020.

Clear your schedule, book your time off and get ready to sail into the next CRC Bay of Islands Sailing Week. Entries are now open, Notice of Race is published and we’ll be back and in business from 21 to 24 January, 2020. We look forward to seeing you there!

Before last year’s regatta we carried out an update of our first aid kits, which meant there was a substantial amount of older – but still usable – first aid items like dressings, swabs and bandages that were no longer needed.

Yes that’s right folks – the much-loved Bay Week Beach Party will return in 2019, thanks to the good folks at Explore and Otehei Bay. YAY!

Entries are coming in for CRC Bay of Islands Sailing Week 2019, with 14 confirmed to date. Check out the Entry List for full details of who’s in to date, and be sure to get your entry in before the end of the year to avoid the $75 late entry fee.

We can’t wait to see who’s going to be joining us for CRC Bay of Islands Sailing Week 2019. If it’s anything like the last few years, we’re expecting a record turnout again, and with over 100 boats competing last year, we’re proud to say we’re still NZ’s biggest and best keelboat regatta.

Keep the momentum going after Bay of Islands Sailing Week, by joining in a fun and friendly Rally to Kawau on Saturday morning, followed by the Kawau to Westhaven Passage Race on Monday – part of the iconic Ports of Auckland Anniversary Day Regatta.

It’s official folks! The 17th edition (or should we say the XVII edition?) of the CRC Bay of Islands Sailing Week regatta will be held from 22-25 January, 2019.

For anyone venturing north to BOISW, the trip back down the coast after a week of racing and partying can be… well, a bit of a drag. So we’ve joined forces with the organisers of the Auckland Anniversary Regatta to turn that drag into an awesome new rally to Kawau!

That’s right sailors – there are just three short months to go until BOISW 2018, so if you haven’t already secured your spot at NZ’s biggest and best regatta, it’s time to…. ENTER NOW!

We’re on the hunt for volunteers to help with the Bay of Islands Sailing Week regatta, from 23-26 January 2018. Can you help us make this awesome event even better? We promise to feed you, and kit you out in BOISW 2018 regalia!

The 16th edition of New Zealand’s biggest and “best” sailing regatta will take place over the week of Tuesday 23rd to Friday 26th January. Mark your diaries – the highlight of the sailing calendar is set to be another superb event both on and off the water.
