Watch the start, follow the fleet

Keen to watch the start of the 2026 PIC Coastal Classic from the water?!
Thanks to our friends at Oceania Harmony Cruises, you can be part of the action that is the “great race north” on Friday 23rd October.
M/V Osprey is a 72ft catamaran which guarantees front-row views of New Zealand’s iconic PIC Coastal Classic yacht race.
M/V Osprey will be positioned close to the start line, giving you the perfect vantage point to witness the dramatic race start and soak up the high-energy atmosphere on the water. You’ll get to follow the fleet out to Rangitoto Lighthouse, and enjoy snacks and refreshments from the onboard bar.
The PIC Coastal Classic starts in the morning, so you will be required to board at 0815, with an 0830 departure from Viaduct Harbour - what a great way to spend a Friday morning!
Tickets are only $40 each and are limited, so get in quick!
