Just a short time from entries opening for Airlie Beach Race Week (ABRW) 2025, keen competitors started committing to the fun event and with 60 entries received to-date, it is a good start to what is sure to be another great week of racing and where fun doesn’t set with the sun from 7-14 August.
Entries have been received across the various classes. Looking healthy at this early stage is the Trailable Yachts & Sports Boats division and the boats are coming from far and wide.
New to Airlie Beach Race Week is a VX-One division. Terry Archer said, “This is a light and fast one-design boat and a number from Victoria have said they will be here, throwing down the gauntlet to those from other states to come and join them."
“The VX’s are gaining in status among the newer sports boat designs in the country. We feel they will be a great addition to our event and the Whitsundays offer the type of conditions they sail best in.”
A fun social program is also a magnet for ABRW. Live Music and food stalls at the Whitsunday Sailing Club nightly, a Long Late Lunch for those ashore, not to mention all the other delights on offer in the region, both on the water and shoreside. So much to see and do, why wouldn’t you want to join in?
No matter what type of boat you sail, there is a division for all at Airlie Beach Race Week, so go online now to enter and see Notice of Race: https://www.abrw.com.au/
