The sails have not long been packed away here at Magnetic Island and already the feedback coming through has been an overwhelming response of "we'll be back in 2010".
Sunferries Magnetic Island Race Week 2009 was a huge success with plenty of great sailing, picture perfect weather and parties to be had. A huge thank you goes out to all who were involved in making this year's regatta the best yet including our sponsors, competitors, spectators, organising committee and a special thanks to the volunteers who have worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure a well organised event. Without the support of all of these people the regatta could not have been what it was in 2009. Thank you!
A copy of the daily race highlights will be sent out to each skipper soon. If you weren't able to compete at Magnetic Island this year but would like to see how great it was, check out the Race Video section from the menu above or click below.
