⛵ OPENING DAY 2026: A SPECTACULAR START TO THE SEASON! ⛵

What an incredible day yesterday! We officially kicked off the sailing season in style with our traditional Opening Day. The club and water were buzzing with energy.

From the pageantry of the Sail Past to the incredible efforts of the 10 sailboats vying for Best Dressed Boat and Crew, it was a fantastic showcase of our club's spirit.

Our spectacular keelboats Te Uira, Tai Toa and Gloria lead the charge, with the rest of our the fleet cutting a fine path through the water.

Our rowers took to the Cygnet and the newly facelifted Swan, while our Youth and Juniors took the Pacers and 420s out for an absolute spin.

Our remote-controlled yachts group put on an exciting racing display right off the Clubhouse.

Ashore we were treated to a brilliant performance by Paris Cafe jazz trio and, of course, delicious food that kept everyone smiling.

THANK YOU! Everyone for making the day so wonderful 🙌

A huge vote of thanks goes out to all our members, participants, volunteers and guests who made yesterday so special. Witnessing the fleet salute the Commodore is always a proud tradition, and yesterday reminded us why this club is so exceptional.

Here’s to a safe, windy, and unforgettable sailing season ahead!

Thanks you Judy Howison for the great pictures.

🌊 Rug Up and Row Success at Dover! 🚣‍♀️🚣‍♂️ 🌊

A huge congratulations to our Port Cygnet Sailing Club rowers who made the trip to Dover on Sunday to take part in the Port Esperance Sailing Club's Tassie Skiff Communities Equinox Rug Up and Row.

The event attracted a great turnout, with rowers from across the region enjoying a fantastic day of friendly competition and camaraderie. There was plenty of action on the water, with crews putting in spirited performances and embracing the challenge in true Tassie skiff style.

A big thank you to Port Esperance Sailing Club for hosting such a well-organised and enjoyable event. The warm hospitality, delicious BBQ, and presentations at the end of the day were the perfect way to round off a great day of rowing and community connection.

Well done to everyone who participated and represented Port Cygnet Sailing Club so proudly. We look forward to seeing you all on the water again soon!

📸 Feel free to share your photos from the day in the comments!
