We’ll send you more details on entering the Rally or joining the spectator ferry when they are available.

First hosted by The Amateurs in 1972, Gaffers Day is a spectacular celebration of the tradition of classic yachting on Sydney Harbour.

Gaffers Day is a rally for all classic boats and “vessels that hoist a spar”. Previous Gaffers Days have seen upwards of 90 vessels on parade, with entrants from NSW, Victoria, Queensland and Tasmania.
