The 167th annual regatta on 28 January 2008, saw for the first time a fleet of 26 operational, retired, vintage and veteran tugs and towboats racing for line honours over a 5 nautical mile course on the outer Waitemata Harbour. There were also trophies for best presented operational tug and best presented retired tug. The race is set to become an annual event.
