Join us on May 25th and 26th 2024, for the third Women and Girls' Sailing Regatta!

This is the only Women and Girls' regatta for off-the-beach classes in South-East QLD. 

Entry is restricted to female skippers only. Male crews are permitted, however the skipper must be female.

The regatta is a 2-day event, but participation is up to you. You can register for 1 or 2 days of sailing.

The event is an opportunity for serious competitors to first-time regatta participants and offers junior coaching and social networking.

The Regatta continues to grow each year with 40 boats participating in last year's event.

The Queensland Government provided $7500 to Humpybong Yacht Club for the Women and Girls Regatta under the Active Women and Girls Program to enable Queenslanders to participate in sport and recreation activities.

Notice Board

Notice of Race and Sailing Instructions will be available closer to the event.

Regatta T-Shirts ($28)

If you'd like to puchase one of our highly coveted regatta T-Shirts ($28 ea), select your t-shirt size at the link below and email Kate to confirm (shesails@hyc.net.au). 

Payment will be collected at the regatta when you register.  T-shirt orders will close on Wednesday May 15th (11pm) to allow time for printing (we can only do one run and we need a min. of 16 orders each run). These tend to be a smallish fit (it's suggested going up a size or two for a comfortable fit), so please check your sizing before placing an order with Kate.

The club has 10 Optis for hire at $50.00 (ea.) for the full 2 days of the regatta. Boat hire is available through the registration process, so register quickly to confirm your boat hire as well. 

On-site camping

The club will make facilities (toilets and showers) available for campers over the weekend. When you register, let us know if you are camping so we can get in touch to confirm when you are arriving and we can keep you informed about camping at HYC.
