2015 12Foot Skiff Interdominion Championship - The battle for the iconic Interdominion 12 Foot Skiff Championship is back on Sydney Harbour from Friday the second January to Saturday the 11th January 2015.

Over 30 skiffs are expected with current champion Alex Valings (NZ) expected to face strong competition from both the current NZ Champion (Chris Reid) and the current Australian Champion (Brett Hobson).

The Queensland fleet has grown in strength and will be pushing strongly for honours, as will a number of NSW’s skiffs being led by the return of Nick Press to 12’s on a full time basis.

Conditions on the Harbour in January will suit the 12’s with exhilarating racing expected, while the facilities available at the regatta site at Double Bay’s Australian 18footers League should ensure a great event for both spectators and competitors.

Notice of race and online entry are available here.

Opportunities still exist for companies wishing to support the event and if interested contact can be made with the Brett Hobson at brett@garde.com.au or Murray Press at murrayjpress@gmail.com.
