Every November, Sydney Harbour transforms—not just into a stunning racecourse—but into a symbol of generosity, community, and hope. The ASX Foundation Financial Markets & Media Charity Regatta is more than a sailing event; it’s a chance for yacht owners to make a real impact.

Last year, dozens of generous skippers shared their vessels for a single day, welcoming corporate guests, industry leaders, and veterans supported by the Saltwater Veterans Sailing Project (SVSP). The excitement, laughter, and sense of belonging on board reminded everyone what this day is truly about—connection, support, and giving back.

Now, we’re calling for more yacht owners to join this special fleet on Friday 14th November 2025 at Middle Harbour Yacht Club. By offering your yacht for the day, you’ll help raise vital funds for SVSP and 15 other remarkable charities—supporting veterans, families, and communities across Australia.

• Your yacht must meet Cat 7 safety standards.
• It should carry at least six corporate guests plus your crew.
• No commercial survey is needed—this is a club race environment with purpose at its heart.

The regatta will conclude with a lively BBQ, prize-giving, and beach party, celebrating all who made the day possible. There’s no cost to owners—just the gift of time, spirit, and goodwill.

Lend your yacht. Sail for purpose. Power 16 charities with your generosity.
