Long distance racing and adventure sailing at it’s finest! Welcome to Jervis Bay!

The Vincentia Sailing Club’s Round the Bay Rally is open to all off-the-beach sailing craft and welcomes sailors of all experience levels to not only race, but to explore the magnificent waterway that is the moona moona. The beauty about our spectacular waterway is that there is so much to explore! There is always an adventure that awaits in Jervis Bay.

The RTBR is a long-distance race that enables sailors of all abilities to improve their skills and confidence through good old-fashioned adventures on the crystal clear waters of Jervis Bay.

Operating outside the confines of traditional course racing, these events are relaxed, friendly and designed to build friendships, strengthen family bonds, and showcase the opportunities to explore that sailing skills enable, fostering a genuine love of sailing in the process.

Below is the VSC’s list of race tracks that can take us to all corners of JB. Additionally, we have included Nautical charts of Jervis Bay. Time to study up!
