SAVE THE DATE 24-25 April
A quick wrap on a very successful Spartafit SSANZ Enduro! With the entire fleet finishing before sunrise on Saturday after a gorgeous moonlit night sail, we hosted a prizegiving on Ponui Island and enjoyed the most beautiful bluebird day!
A fantastic way to wrap up a busy season of offshore sailing and exchange some stories from the big races!
Now itβs time to think about Triple Series. Stay tuned and we will be out with more information soon π

Doyle Sails Round North Island Prizegiving Night π
A great way to wrap up an epic race, celebrating the sailors, the stories, and everything that comes with going all the way around the North Island
From hard-fought legs to well-earned finishes, it was awesome to see everyone come together off the water and recognise the effort that went into this yearβs race.
Here are a few snaps from a memorable night last Friday from Suellen Hurling / Live Sail Dieπ

Great to follow this event. One thing I have to ask tho: where are the multis? I seem to recall the Tennant tri Krisis doing this back in the day
Great prize giving, and what a fantastic line up of classic trophies, and of course classic crews. Noting the race now is in its 49th year since it first was held in Feb 1977. Prize giving for 2029 will have to be held at the Devonport Yacht Club, the home club of its creation.
Best way to wrap up such an A W E S O M E event! Such a great bunch, congrats to all - book me a front row seat for the next lap!

My father was instrumental in set up and did the inaugural 2 handed RNI race, 1984 I think. I have photos of all the boats sitting in the dockyard
Smashed it guys!
