Bay of the Islands Sailing Week celebrated their 15th anniversary at last week's regatta.

Over one-thousand sailors raced everything from sport boats to super yachts in the biggest regatta of its kind in New Zealand and one of the Southern Hemisphere's premier races.

North Sails was well represented across all divisions in the fleets and in the Millennium Cup for superyachts. Once again, Will Calver of Ocean Photographer was there to catch the action.
