Tauranga Cup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tauranga Cup is an annual New Zealand sailing competition for P Class dinghies which began in 1940. Many of New Zealand's top sailors have won the Tanner Cup, including Dean Barker, Chris Dickson and Leslie Egnot. The Tauranga Cup is closely related to the Tanner Cup. The competition is named because P Class yachts were originally sailed in Tauranga.
A minimum of four races are required to award the cup, and a minimum of five races are required to designate the winning competitor the P Class national champion. In 2013, in Nelson, only one race was sailed, not constituting a series, so the cup was not awarded. The winner, however, of the race sailed, was Leonard Takahashi-Fry.
