It was a big year of celebration at 2008 Audi Hamilton Island Race Week and we have to start by saying a big thank you to all the participants, sponsors and, volunteers who helped make this year’s 25th Anniversary Edition of Race Week such a success.
Over the past 25 years Audi Hamilton Island Race Week has become a sailing institution. Thousands of sailors, their families, and friends have made the annual pilgrimage to the Australian tropics to enjoy some of the most competitive and enjoyable racing to be had at any regatta in the world. Since inception the event’s growth has been stunning - from just three divisions and fewer than 100 yachts in 1984, to 12 divisions and a record fleet of 225 in 2008.
Amazing images and video footage including highlights from throughout the week of premium-quality offshore racing and the "spectator" fleet at the various off-water social events can now be viewed on the official Race week galleries.
The 2009 Audi Hamilton Island Race Week is to be held 21-29 August 2009. Register your interest and you will be the first to receive the Notice Of Race and registration forms. We will keep you updated as we draw closer to the event. |
