History of Sail Airlie

​Since becoming an annual event in 2009, the Whitsunday Sailing Club Easter Off the Beach regatta has become an important date in the calendar for many sailors across Queensland, with some coming all the way from Brisbane to complete.

2021 celebrates the 50th Anniversary of the formation of Whitsunday Sailing Club.  So this year will be extra special, so the club would love to see as many competitors, families and friends enjoying the festivities.

Sail Airlie Regatta

Once again , the Whitsunday Sailing Club will conduct the annual Sail Airlie regatta over the Easter period, 3 – 5 April 2021. This event attracts entrants from Tinaroo and Mission Beach down to Brisbane, and again hosts the North Queensland Laser Championship as a prelude to the Queensland Laser Championship later in the week, as well as the Queensland NACRA Championship. Competition is run over 3 separate course areas ranged from the high performance 29’er and off beach mulithulls, through to Lasers and similar dinghies, junior fleets and a green fleet, with competitors ranging from as young as 7 years of age ranging up to competitors in their 60’s.
Other classes which compete in the event included Tasar, Flying 11, A Class, 125, Optimist, Sabot.

The regatta is open to all classes of Off the Beach racing dinghies and catamarans.  Classes may be split into divisions, with results calculated by class yardstick, subject to entries.

Up to 10 races are scheduled for each division, with racing on Saturday, Sunday and Monday
