WC Daldy Wins Auckland Anniversary Day Tug Race 2011

Posted in Auckland Harbour News, Charters & Excursions, General News on February 1st, 2011 by Webmaster

Once again we proved wisdom over youth and successfully won the 173rd Auckland Anniversary Day Tug Race!

With poor coal and blustery conditions we still managed sail to victory. A BIG thank you to our stokers and our supporters for making this day a HUGE success! Winning the best presented surveyed vessel is a testament to all the hard work our volunteers and supporters have put in over the last 32 years!

  • The Thompson Towboat Trophy for the first on handicap
  • The Parry Trophy for the best presented surveyed vessel
