Noosa Gaff Rig Regatta 2019 © Phil Atkins Moonlight s first sailing race took place at the Noosa Yacht and Rowing Club, on the Noosa River. The inaugural Noosa Gaff Rig Regatta had a small fleet, ranging from a 23 ft. Pilot Cutter, to Moonlight, a 12 ft. Gunter rigged clinker or lap strake dinghy. This was the first race for Moonlight and her crew who were normally accustomed to leisurely cruising. The Noosa River is situated at Noosa, North of the Sunshine Coast in South East Queensland. After a week of wet and windy weather, race day delivered blue skies, and light winds. Noosa is just a half hour drive from our home on the Sunshine Coast. We launched at around 9 am, rigged the boat at Tewantin on the Noosa Estuary, and motored downstream to the banks of the River in front of the Noosa Yacht and Rowing Club.
