2026 will be the 12th year of the fabulous Wireless Communications " X11 King of the Gulf".
Again the regatta will be conducted out of the Port Vincent Marina with a large marquee on the marina lawns welcoming all.
This regatta is so dam good it is worth the price of a boat.
The KOG regatta conducted by the Multihull Yacht Association of South Australia and the Royal South Australian Yacht Squadron as the administartive authority. This regatta continues to go from strength to strength and is currently the largest yachting regatta in South Australia.
Great flat water racing coupled with a fantastic inclusive social program makes this a bucket list regatta and one of the most enjoyable regattas you will ever sail in. It is easy to get to, inexpensive, inovative and great fun.
