Metre Monthly Race Notice

Hamilton Lake - Sunday 20th June 2021

This is a one-day regatta hosted by the Waikato Radio Yacht Club on Hamilton Lake with assistance from the North Shore Radio Yacht Squadron and in conjunction with NZL IOM NCA.

The Metre Monthly concept was very popular a few years ago as it brought together sailors from the Clubs around the region for a competitive, no frills, one day regatta.

Race day is a Sunday, to allow those committed/tied to their club racing on Saturday the opportunity to attend on Sunday.

Being a one-day regatta avoids the expense of finding overnight accommodation for the out of towners.

The first race is later than normal (11am) to allow the out of towners extra time to travel to Hamilton Lake.

Although we are using the name ‘Metre Monthly’ the idea is to hold these regattas when it best fits with the sailing calendar. Rather than being held monthly it might only be 2, 3 or 4 times a year.

There are no other IOM regattas scheduled for the month of June so this Metre Monthly fills the gap before the July Auckland Champs and we look forward to sailing on Hamilton Lake again.

Eligibility: Open to all affiliated members of the NZRYA sailing a current registered IOM yacht.
