You will have seen many organisations and clubs begin to postpone or cancel events over the previous few weeks due to the unfolding COVID-19 pandemic.

The CYA is taking the lead of Yachting New Zealand, the RNZYS, and our host clubs, and is cancelling all remaining events on our summer sailing calendar. This includes the Round Rangitoto Race coming up this weekend, the Vintage & Veterans Regatta, and the ANZAC Day Regatta in April.

We will keep you posted about further events such as the beginning of the Winter Race season on Saturday 2 May and the Riverhead Cruise on Sunday 3 May.

While the way we live and work is changing rapidly, we hope you can still get out on the water in one way or another and enjoy some fresh air and salt water!

Stay safe, and look out for each other.

- CYA committee
