On behalf of the Port Lincoln Yacht Club, welcome to the 2009 Lexus Adelaide to Port Lincoln Yacht Race, and Lincoln Week Regatta. South Australia’s premier ocean race will be held for the 59th time starting on Friday the 20th of February 2009. This year the event will be held in conjunction with the Cruising Yacht Club of South Australia helping to co-ordinate the Adelaide end of the race.

This is a race of 156 nautical miles finishing in the picturesque city of Port Lincoln. Port Lincoln, the home to Australia’s largest fishing fleet and some of Australia’s premier cruising grounds, is the jewel in South Australia’s crown.

For those of you staying for the 34th Lincoln Week Regatta, Port Lincoln offers flat water racing on the beautiful Boston Bay. This years Regatta includes fleets for IRC, Cruising, Multihull’s, Trailables and J24’s.

What sets Lincoln Week apart from the rest is a well-run regatta with a huge serve of country hospitality.  Come and sample some of Australia’s finest seafood and wines, all grown and caught locally. Crayfish, prawns, oysters and mussels just to name a few. All washed down with beautiful Eyre Peninsula wines. Worth the trip in itself!

Lexus Lincoln Week is a great regatta in arguably the best sailing waters in Australia so I hope to see you in Port Lincoln in February!
