The 2023 Beneteau Owner's Rally is on the horizon. Mark your calendars and get ready to cruise with us!

After a sad postponement of the original rally date in November 2022 due to unfortunate weather, 36 Degrees and PIC Insurance Brokers are overjoyed to announce the NEW Rally date in the NEW Year! Join us on Saturday January 21st for a fun-filled day of boating and a soiree celebrating all things Beneteau.

The Rally is a celebration of the camaraderie and spirit that makes the Beneteau brand so special and is open to all Beneteau owners, regardless of where you have sailed from. With each passing year, Beneteau has welcomed a growing network of new boats and loyal customers. Having our NZ club continue to grow has been amazing, and we are always excited to welcome any new owners who wish to get in on the fun. 

WHATS ON THE AGENDA

We'll be kicking off at Browns Island and sailing through to Man O' War Vineyard on Waiheke Island. After dropping anchor just off shore, you can settle in for an afternoon of games, nibbles, a wine tasting and a special prize draw with some great gifts up for grabs. We are absolutely committed to making this a relaxing and enjoyable day out, but that doesn't mean there won't be plenty of competitions and prizes to be won along the way!

Winners will walk away with an array of prizes from our very generous Prize Sponsors.

Our prize sponsors are industry leaders in the field who we often work closely with - we highly recommend their product and services and encourage everyone to get out and support their businesses. Take a look at who we have onboard so far!
