Tauranga vessel, Frenzy, has won the Tauranga to Whitianga yacht race held at the start of Anniversary Weekend, contested by ‘A' division keelers and a multi-hull.
There were seven yachts in the race that began at 7pm on Friday from Tauranga Yacht and Power Boat Club. They sailed through the night and all arrived in Whitianga at dawn on Sunday.
Frenzy won the Anniversary Weekend Tauranga to Whitianga Yacht Race.
Frenzy arrived first at 5.15am, with the field quite close with Fast Lane coming last in seventh just an hour behind, arriving at about 6.15am.
Two of the yachts' progress in the event was tracked by Steve's Marine Supplies, through Steve Glover's Spot tracking system, which plots a boat's progress on an online map – viewable at www.stevesmarine.co.nz
Steve's father's boat, sixth placed Sabian, carried the system and Steve says this was great because he was able to watch the race's progress.
