Entries are officially OPEN and the Notice of Race is LIVE for the 2023-2024 Australian Hobie Cat National Championships. Taking place in Manly, Brisbane out of the widely renowned Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron, the Queensland Hobie Cat Association have been working tirelessly behind scenes, with Yacht Share, Sunstate Watersports, Cat Covers & Gill all jumping along for the ride!

As the tension begins to build from Moreton Bay to Jervis Bay, and from Westernport to the Swan River, mariners have begun hitting the water right the country whilst the wind god's work tirelessly to ensure the sun will be shining, the breeze blowing, and the kids absolutely loving it!

With the grandiose success of the 50th Australian Championships nine months ago, the hopes are high for Australian summer’s greatest regatta.

All the registration information for the Australian Championships can be found via the Hobie CatNationals Webpage, including the notice of race, schedule of events and local accommodation.

Entry for both Series 1 & 2 can be found on the home page, where the entrant will be taken to RQYS.
