At around midday, 50+ competitors in the Bartercard Sail Paradise Regatta will be part of this spectacular “Parade of Sail” where a column of vessels under full sail will entertain the people of the Gold Coast as it is witnessed from the mainland. Residents in high rise apartments, visitors to the city and local beach goer’s can view this first-ever spectacular parade by Southport Yacht Club and the 50+ visiting yachts.
Drew Jones Vice Commodore of Sail say’s “Our club sailors are excited to have an opportunity to showcase their yachts in this anniversary year of the club to the thousands of people, who look out to sea when we compete in our Bartercard Sail Paradise event off-shore”.
