Summer racing is back at QCYC!
Sailing Chair Jack Morrison gives us a quick rundown on what’s coming up this September, starting this weekend with the Careel Worlds, followed by the 75th Bribie Cup on 12 September and the 51st Vintage Yacht Regatta from 18–20 September.
For spectators, book in for breakfast and watch the marina come to life as crews prepare to head out, or join us later in the afternoon for a drink at the bar as the boats return.
For sailors, entries are still open for the Bribie Cup and Vintage Yacht Regatta.
Thanks to Northside Marine - Life beyond the shore. for its ongoing support of QCYC racing and Husk Farm Distillery, major sponsor of the Vintage Yacht Regatta.

The Gaffers are back on the calendar!
After missing our July weekend, we're looking forward to welcoming everyone back for the 51st Vintage Yacht Regatta, now rescheduled to 18–20 September.
For sailors, entries have reopened. Already entered? Simply confirm you're racing on the new dates at [email protected].
For those coming along to watch, there's nothing quite like seeing these beautiful old boats under sail. The QCYC Restaurant and Bar will be open across the weekend, so come down and enjoy some time by the marina.
And why not make it two weekends of sailing? The 75th Bribie Cup is on Saturday 12 September and, for the first time, includes a Classic Division for classic and vintage yachts.
