Regatta Fleet Cap is Approaching 3 March 2022 Australia’s internationally acclaimed yacht regatta - Hamilton Island Race Week will be contested on the island-laced tropical waters around Hamilton Island from August 20 – 27, 2022. Within the first few weeks of releasing the Notice of Race, Hamilton Island Race Week’s Race Director, Denis Thompson, shared that entry numbers are already at record levels. “We are nearly at 200 entries,” Thompson said. “With not being able to stage Hamilton Island Race Week for the past two years, we expected a lot of entries Australia-wide however did not anticipate they would come in so quickly. It usually takes us a few months to reach this number of entries.” Hamilton Island CEO, Glenn Bourke, said: “We are looking forward to the excitement, the spirit, the fun and the camaraderie that the Race Week sailors and their families and friends bring to our shores. Given this unprecedented booking pace, to ensure we deliver Race Week to the highest standard, the Race Committee have made the decision to cap the regatta numbers. We are fast approaching that cap now so I encourage anyone planning to register to do so as soon as possible”.
