The 2026 Pittwater Regatta is shaping up to be one of the highlights of the summer, and at its centre will be the Grand Soleil Cup Australia. Sydney Marine Brokerage, as the exclusive Australian dealer for Grand Soleil Yachts, is proud to support this iconic event.

Run as a dedicated division within the regatta, the Grand Soleil Cup Australia brings the fleet together on home waters, showcasing exactly what these yachts are built for – performance, balance, and beautiful sailing. It’s also an opportunity to celebrate the strength of the Grand Soleil community in Australia.


An Extraordinary Prize

This year, the overall Grand Soleil Cup Australia winner and a guest will receive a hosted trip to the international Grand Soleil Cup at the prestigious Yacht Club Costa Smeralda (YCCS) in Porto Cervo, Sardinia. The prize includes:

  • Return flights to Sardinia
  • Luxury accommodation and meals
  • Private transfers and exclusive owners’ dinners
  • Full Grand Soleil hospitality
  • Front-row access to two days of world-class racing

This is more than just a trip – it’s an invitation into the international Grand Soleil community, offering a rare glimpse into one of the world’s most prestigious yacht clubs.

Beyond the Major Prize

There’s plenty more to enjoy across the weekend. Prizes will be awarded on both race days, and there will be live entertainment, on-water action, and a vibrant social program. The Pittwater Regatta, running 13–15 February 2026 at RPAYC, is expected to attract more than 80 yachts from over 14 clubs, with divisions for competitive, social, offshore, and inshore sailors.

The Grand Soleil Cup Australia is proudly embedded within this flagship event, giving owners the chance to race locally while experiencing international recognition and prestige.

We can’t wait to see the Grand Soleil fleet on the start line and celebrate another standout moment for the brand in Australia.
