COMMODORE'S MESSAGE

Dear Members

Has normality returned? After all the impacts of COVID lockdowns, the 36th Americas’ Cup, and the controversy of the venue choice for the 37th Cup, we now have a different range of issues impacting us - significant inflation, a bear stock market, changes in our Team, escalating people costs, increased fuel prices and a potential recession. Please rest assured the new Team are committed to working through these issues and delivering our vision of being the leading local and international yacht club.

The first part of the Handbook is to introduce you to your Flags Officers, General Committee and Team to help you recognize those who contribute to make the Squadron what it is. For us to continue to be at the forefront as New Zealand’s leading yacht club, please make yourself aware of the information and respect the Club rules.

There is a detailed sailing calendar for 2022 – 2023, including sailing instructions, courses, tides and sailing detail – any changes to this sailing information is posted online so ensure that you utilise the RNZYS website and app to keep up to date.

RNZYS starts around 1500 yacht races on our harbour, around the Gulf and further afield; supporting youth development and members competing internationally; and continuing to grow our sport through learn-to-sail programmes, and several national and international events every year. We also provide members with a place to meet, catch up with old friends and meet new ones. Our cruising division and rum race programmes add colour and friendliness – they can also be a fun entry point to the club.

We are a members club where delivering exceptional experiences to our members is our focus. We endeavour to continually work on keeping our sailing programme fresh and exciting, and we rely on feedback from members to ensure we deliver what you need. Of course, it is not all about sailing - we run many exciting off-water events that bring like-minded members together at our club rooms and on-water social events for owners of all types of craft. We also provide event facilities for our corporate members, sponsors and external groups alike – a valued income stream for the club.

Our Sailing Office, Food & Beverage, Events and Admin teams do an outstanding job, however without our Member Volunteers, we could not deliver all the outcomes our members ask of us.

Our sincere thanks to the RNZYS sponsors and partners who enable the Club to offer the many events to members – it is your club, please enjoy it and I encourage you to support these businesses and people; together, we need to make the Club the best it can be.

On behalf of The Flag Officers, General Committee, our Team and our Volunteers, I thank you all for your support and look forward to seeing you at the club and out on the water.

CLUB HISTORY

Auckland’s hills and shores wrap around the sparkling Waitemata Harbour, making it a natural venue for boating of all types. The foundations of the city as we know it today were laid in 1840 and the occasion was immediately marked by a regatta. It was an appropriate portent of things to come as yachting and boating flourished and ultimately grew to enjoy an international reputation. The Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron traces its origin back to the 1871 incarnation of the Auckland Yacht Club, which began with 30 yachts and 120 members on its register. By then, the city had grown into a much more substantial and thriving enterprise, with the harbour playing a central role in its progress.

By the turn of the century, yacht racing was a flourishing sport, attracting crowds of spectators, keen punters and detailed reports of intense sporting rivalries in the local newspapers. Under the leadership of some of the city’s prominent captains of industry and commerce, the AYC showed continued growth. A tremendous rivalry between the Logan and Bailey boatbuilding families spurred the growth of an outstanding fleet of racing yachts, most of which joined the AYC fleet. In 1901, the AYC changed its name to the New Zealand Yacht Squadron. The following year the Squadron celebrated a major milestone when it received a warrant in the name of King Edward VII, elevating its status to a Royal club. With this recognition membership numbers almost doubled from 157 in 1901 to 300 in 1903.

During both World Wars, yacht racing was largely suspended in Auckland. Members of the RNZYS served in all theatres of both wars and in all the armed services, while those who were not able to serve abroad were involved in harbour defence and patrol duties. To accommodate steady growth, the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron moved through a succession of rented premises in the city until in 1955 it bought a handsome two-storey brick house in Parliament Street with sweeping views over the Waitemata Harbour. A decade later, the RNZYS leased an existing building, which had long accommodated the popular Trillo’s cabaret and dancehall at Westhaven. Westhaven had been earmarked for the establishment of a major city marina and the establishment of a foothold there was a strategic move for the future. For nearly a decade, the RNZYS retained its Parliament Street headquarters in the city but in 1975 it was decided to move permanently to the Westhaven site.

From the 1960s, the RNZYS was at the forefront of a steady rise in international competition. In 1966, James Davern sailed his yacht Fidelis across the Tasman Sea and swept to line honours victory in the grueling 630 mile Sydney-Hobart Race. Fidelis set a new race record and the 17-hour margin between 1st and 2nd stood for many years as the longest in the race’s history. Three years later, Chris Bouzaid and an RNZYS crew aboard Rainbow II took on the elite of international yacht racing, winning the prestigious One Ton Cup in Heligoland, Germany against a line-up of seasoned competitors from the USA, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Sweden, Holland and Switzerland. On the foundations laid by these successes, the RNZYS trophy cabinets have played host to some of the biggest prizes in world yachting including the Half, One and Two-Ton Cups, the Admiral’s Cup, the Kenwood Cup, the Champagne Mumm World Cup, the Whitbread Round the World Trophy, the Louis Vuitton Cup and the America’s Cup.

Carrying the RNZYS burgee into battle, Team New Zealand won the America’s Cup in San Diego in 1995, then successfully defended it on the Hauraki Gulf in 2000. Both matches were decisively settled with 5-0 victories.

After losing to Switzerland in 2003, the RNZYS became the only yacht club in the world to challenge and win the America’s Cup twice when Emirates Team New Zealand scored a 7-1 victory over Oracle Team USA in Bermuda in 2017. In both intervening Cup regattas – at Valencia in 2007 and San Francisco in 2013 – Emirates Team New Zealand won the Louis Vuitton Challenger series but fell short in the America’s Cup Matches.

On the back of the success in Bermuda, however, the America’s Cup returned to Auckland to took up residence in the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron once more.

Coinciding with the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron’s 150th sesquicentenary in 2021, Emirates Team New Zealand successfully defended the 36th America’s Cup in Auckland, defeating Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli 7-3 and ensuring the RNZYS remains the Home of the America’s Cup.

By agreement between the RNZYS and Emirates Team New Zealand, the 2024 defence of the America’s Cup will take place in Barcelona, Spain. The Challenger of Record is the Royal Yacht Squadron.

Over the past thirty years the Mastercard Youth Training Programme has trained over 500 highly competitive sailors. The success of the programme directly relates to the ongoing success of its graduates. Many have achieved outstanding results at the very highest level of our sport including America’s Cup, Volvo Ocean Race, World Match Racing events, Offshore Sailing and National Championships – and of course club racing champions.

The eleven month course focusses on advanced aspects of sailing including; racing rules, tactics, strategy, navigation, sail trim, boat handling, boat maintenance, communication, fitness, in addition to life skills. Upon completion of the year students may wish to graduate or re-join for a consecutive year or years. Typically training takes place every Sunday and every second Saturday with sailors encouraged to take part in the RNZYS Doyle Sails Winter Series on the alternate Saturdays to allow participants to hone their skills in

other keelboats.

During the year teams are selected to represent the RNZYS at a number of match racing and keelboat events both nationally and internationally. Our sponsors play an integral role in the programme, along with our Race Management team of volunteers and graduates.

Mastercard Youth Training Programme applications are open from January until April each year to male and female sailors between 15 – 23 years of age.

REGISTRATION INFORMATION

SQUADRON REGISTER OF YACHTS & MOTOR YACHTS

To be eligible to enter Squadron CLOSED events, members must register their vessel on the Squadron Register. The rules for Registration are contained in the RNZYS Regulations 12.0. Registration forms are available from Reception or on the website. Members’ yachts or motor yachts will then be included on the Yacht/Motor Yacht Register, posted on the website.

AMENDMENTS: Please ensure any changes to ownership are advised to the Sailing Office.

YACHTING NEW ZEALAND REGISTRATION

In order to comply with the current Racing Rules of Sailing, members wishing to race in club, national or international races, series or events are required to register their yachts with Yachting New Zealand. This is in addition to Club Registration. Owners are asked to advise Yachting New Zealand of any changes to ownership or contact information to ensure the Yachting New Zealand Register is kept up-to-date. Change of ownership/new registration/ and change of boat name forms can be completed online via the Yachting New Zealand website www.yachtingnz.org.nz. All RNZYS members are also members of YNZ.

Contact: Yachting New Zealand

Telephone 09 361 1471, Fax 09 360 2246

Email reception@yachtingnz.org.nz

Website www.yachtingnz.org.nz

Physical address 4 Fred Thomas Drive - (South east entrance) Takapuna, Auckland 0622. Postal address PO Box 331487, Takapuna, Auckland 0740.

HANDICAPPING CERTIFICATES

PHRF

Owners requiring a new or revalidated PHRF certificate should contact Yachting New Zealand or see their website. Owners are reminded that to be eligible for a PHRF certificate, boats must be registered in the name of the current owner. PHRF handicaps are listed and updated regularly on the Yachting New Zealand website.

Please note: All certificates lapse on 31 May annually but can be revalidated anytime from 1 May. Owners will need to ensure that certificates have been revalidated to be eligible to use their PHRF certificate in Squadron races from 1 June.

IRC

For racing in NZ, you have the choice of applying for an endorsed or an unendorsed IRC certificate. IRC is a self-measurement system, which means you do not have to get your boat measured unless you need an endorsed certificate.

IRC Endorsed Certificates:

Endorsed certificates require an approved IRC Measurer to weigh and measure your boat and complete the IRC application. Some regattas may require the use of endorsed certificates; this will be stated in the Notice of Race.

IRC Un-Endorsed Certificates:

Unendorsed certificates use owner supplied measurements. Many designs already have Standard Hull information on file, so very little measurement is required.The list of designs held is on the “Standards Hulls” page of the New Application form. Currently there are just under 2000 designs listed. To check for the latest listings see the RORC website.

Please note: All IRC certificates lapse on 31 May annually but can be revalidated anytime from mid May. Owners will need to ensure that certificates have been revalidated to use their IRC Certificate in Squadron races from 1 June.

SAFETY CERTIFICATES

Safety requirements apply to all racing in accordance with Part II of the Yachting New Zealand Safety Regulations (Offshore and Coastal Racing).

Category 4 and 5 races require the owner to declare to the club that all safety regulations are complied with. Category 3 and above require that the yacht be inspected by a Yachting New Zealand appointed inspector, see the Yachting New Zealand website for a full list of inspectors. For more information please contact Yachting New Zealand Safety Officer on 09 361 1471 or www.yachtingnz.org.nz.

YACHTS/CRAFT DEPARTING NEW ZEALAND

Any NZ pleasure vessel departing for a place outside NZ must undergo a safety inspection involving the vessel, its equipment and crew. Yachting NZ Category 1 standards apply to both racing and cruising craft. Inspections are undertaken by Yachting NZ safety inspectors.

The Ship Registration Act 1992 requires that New Zealand flagged vessels departing New Zealand for overseas need to be registered as a New Zealand ship (on the New Zealand Register of Ships) and obtain necessary safety and customs clearances.

NEW ZEALAND REGISTRATION

Owners need to apply to the Maritime Safety Authority Registrar of Ships to have their vessels registered.

Part A - A permanent registration

Part B - Registration lasting a period of five years, renewable after that date and which lapses when a vessel is sold.

TRUSTED PARTNERS

Coastguard Hibiscus has chosen Yamaha V6 four-stoke outboards for their reliability and superior performance. They trust our 4.2L V6 engines to deliver performance on speed-to-response and power to shift heavy loads. We work in partnership for your safety on NZ waters.

SHE SIPS FUEL WHILE THIRSTING FOR ADVENTURE

At a top speed of 34 knots, the elegant PB55 maintains an unusually low profile in the water. And if you cast your eyes astern, you’ll observe she’s leaving precious little wake.

The explanation for these phenomena is very simple.

Developed by ocean-racing champion Mark Richards and his team of naval architects, this unique combination of underwater geometry, exotic materials and build philosophy delivers unrivalled stability, comfort and fuel economy. You can hop on board and explore this beauty at PalmBeachMotoryachts.com
