The waters of the Whitsundays are still again as the 2013 Multihull Solutions Whitsunday Rendezvous has drawn to a close.
According to the organisers, this year’s event was an overwhelming success with 15 multihulls and their crew enjoying a week of casual sailing, fantastic social events and idyllic relaxation.
The overall winner of the Rendezvous was the crew of the Mahe 36 Reflexion, who took home two nights accommodation on Hamilton Island, while Kuringai 2, a Bahia 46, won the lift, water blast and three days' hardstand.
As the event wrapped up, plans were already being made to return for the 2014 event.
For those who can’t wait until then, or were unable to join in the action in the Whitsundays, the Multihull Solutions Pittwater Rendezvous is just around the corner.
From October 4-6, Multihull Solutions in partnership with the Royal Motor Yacht Club Broken Bay (RMYC) will host the cruising Multihull Rendezvous Rally to complement the traditional APC Logistics Lock Crowther Multihull Regatta racing regatta.

Multihull Solutions has also joined forces with Mariner Boating to showcase two exciting new international multihull rallies in early 2014.
The Caribbean Canter Yacht Rally will take place from February 28 to March 10, encompassing a cruise through the Leeward Islands between Antigua and St Martin. Including the pristine islands of Barbuda and Saba. The rally race program is low key, but with some serious parties, and is designed to get participants from one destination to the next while soaking up the colourful mix of cultures and spectacular landscape.
The Sail Tahiti Yacht Rally from April 13-24 in 2014 comprises an unforgettable cruise through the spectacular Leeward Islands of French Polynesia aboard a Catana 41 or Catana 47.
The rally will take in some of the world’s most beautiful locations including the ‘vanilla island’ of Taha’a and the stunning island of Bora Bora where lush valleys blossom with hibiscus, and brilliant fish and giant manta rays glide through endless coral gardens. The itinerary also includes a cruise to the ‘woman island’ of Huahine, a stop at Faaroa Bay, and night at the diving and spiritual mecca of Raiatea, which legend holds to be the cradle of Polynesian civilisation.
Multihull Solutions says that participants can also use these international rallies as a great way to try before they buy.
