The first Beneteau Cup Hong Kong will be hosted at Aberdeen Boat Club’s Middle Island site on the weekend of May 15-16. The event has been billed as ‘the first sailing regatta dedicated to Beneteau owners of its kind in Asia’.

Designed to become an annual event, Beneteau Cup Hong Kong is organised by Beneteau Asia-Pacific and regional dealer Simpson Marine, which has a long-standing partnership with Aberdeen Boat Club.

Initial plans for the weekend include a regatta comprising multiple classes, a seated awards ceremony with live music in the Middle Island clubhouse on the Saturday evening, and a pursuit race on the Sunday followed by a beach barbecue and family treasure hunt at Round Island.

“All Beneteau owners are invited to join us for this fun weekend, which will start a new sailing tradition in Hong Kong. We encourage Beneteau owners to register on the website as soon as possible,” Simpson Marine stated.

“Early entries are recommended as the seats at the awards dinner on May 15 are limited by the current social distancing regulations, which will be updated accordingly closer to date.”
