2027 will be the 13th year of the fabulous Wireless Communications "King of the Gulf XIII".
Again the regatta will be conducted out of the Port Vincent Marina with a large marquee on the marina lawns and this year we will have the added excitement of hosting the Australian National Multihull Championships which will be conducted within the King of the Gulf regatta.
“The King of the Gulf 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 with 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.
