The Torbay Sailing Club has carefully considered the implications of the Government's guidelines at the Red level and the effects it will have on the organisation of the Sir Peter Blake Torbay Regatta. The event is traditionally a celebration and festival of youth sailing. It is a unique event and is arguably the largest centreboard regatta on the New Zealand youth sailing calendar. To hold the event under the Red level would logistically be a very difficult proposition. The club invests a lot of time and resources into the event and we do not want to diminish the essence of the event in any way. It is with regret that we have decided to cancel the 2021 event which was rescheduled for 12 - 13 March 2022.
We will begin preparations soon for the 2022 event to be held on the traditional weekend of 3 - 4 December 2022. We look forward to seeing you all later this year. Notice of Race has been published for the 2021 edition of the Sir Peter Blake Regatta.
