Tickets on Sale for the RNZYS Youth Yachties Ball
Think school ball, but with all your sailing mates.
The Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron is launching the Youth Yachties Ball on Saturday 19 September, a new annual social event for sailors aged 18–23 from across New Zealand.
Open to all young sailors—not just RNZYS members—the evening will bring together the next generation of the sport for a formal night featuring a welcome drink, food throughout the evening, a live DJ, photobooth, and the crowning of the inaugural Youth Yachtie King & Queen.
Whether you race keelboats, dinghies, wing foils, or anything in between, this is your chance to reconnect with old friends, make new ones, and celebrate the sailing community.
Tickets are on sale now, with numbers limited.

Exclusive screening of “Seasick: Saving the Hauraki Gulf”
Whether we sail or cruise under power, we share a love of the Hauraki Gulf – and a responsibility to care for it now and for future generations.
Join us at the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron on Thursday 1 October 2026 at 6:30pm for a special screening of Seasick: Saving the Hauraki Gulf.
We’re delighted to welcome Director Simon Mark-Brown, who will introduce his film in person. With documentary credits including The Sun Came Out, The Man on the Island and, as co-director, A Seat at the Table, Simon brings a wealth of storytelling experience to a subject close to our hearts.
The Gulf we love. Its future in focus.
Through stunning underwater footage and expert interviews, Seasick explores the impact of pollution and overfishing on the Gulf, and how traditional Māori protection methods could help restore its balance.
Come early, order dinner from the Sailors’ menu, and enjoy popcorn during the screening.
