Australian Sailing is thrilled to announce that Hamilton Island will be continuing their major partnership with Australian Sailing and the Australian Sailing Team.

Hamilton Island has been a major partner of Australian Sailing since 2016 and this new arrangement will see their support continue until at least 2021.

Hamilton Island will remain on the hull and mainsail of all AST athlete boats and have a number of other activations throughout the term.

CEO of Australian Sailing, Ben Houston, said he is delighted to see Hamilton Island extend its relationship with Australian Sailing.

"Hamilton Island have been a valued partner of Australian Sailing for several years and from the outset it has been an excellent alignment.

"With less than a year to go until the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, it's a very exciting time for Australian Sailing, and it is a great boost to have Hamilton Island extend their partnership with us.

"On behalf of everyone at Australian Sailing I would like to thank Hamilton Island [and especially Sandy Oatley and Glenn Bourke for their personal support] for their ongoing commitment and loyalty to our sport."

Hamilton Island have also extended their generosity and will be supporting SheSails - Australian Sailing's newly formed female participation program. Read more here.
