From midday Monday, 108 yachts across four divisions will contest the 2021 Bannisters Port Stephens Commodores Cup, sailing one of 14 scenic inshore and offshore courses that Principal Race Officer Denis Thompson nominates. Among Div.1 line-honours contenders will be the Marten 49 Indigo2, DK46 Khaleesi, Shaw 11 Little Nico and local yacht 51st Project, a Beneteau First 50. The Azuree 46 Kayimai is another regatta regular with a remarkable turn of speed under kite, always well sailed by her Middle Harbour crew.
