2026 Cock O'Harbour Regatta Results
It appears that a chilly night and a forecast of a cold 25+knot south-westerly breeze kept many potential competitors safely under their doonas, so only 6 boats attempted this year's Cock of the Harbour Regatta.
Like last year's race the F18 "Musto" skippered by Dean Nissen and the F20 "Thunderbolt" skippered by Brett White battled for the major prize. While "Thunderbolt" led for much of the race a knot on the spinnaker retrieval line came undone causing them to lose the lead and eventually finish second to "Musto". Third was the MG14 "Molotov Cocktail" skippered by Arran Gore, who also won on Yardstick from "Musto" from another MG14 "Expatriate" skippered by Ben Rigby.
