Steve Western provides this gallery from the 2014 Tall Ships Race, sailed in the picturesque Bay of Islands, Northland, NZ.

The event was modified this year to include other yachts that in previous years would not have met the criteria.There was a brisk northerly that made the course from Russell around Whale rock, Motukiekie, Moturua to Motoroa Island and back to Russell a challenge at the start. Over eighty yachts are believed to have entered, who enjoyed fine weather and a fast finish.
