The Cruising Yacht Club of Australia is proud to announce Concierge Traveller has joined the Club's portfolio of partners - linking with the CYCA as the title sponsor of the Concierge Traveller Spring Series for the next three years.

The 2019 Concierge Traveller Spring Series includes racing divisions in IRC and ORCi, as well as the traditional PHS handicap, with options for spinnaker and non-spinnaker racing. Additionally, this year's series will include a Women's Spring Pointscore sub-division for competitors with a female helmsperson.

Each week in the Concierge Traveller Spring Series, the winners of each division will go into a draw to win a $500 Concierge Traveller voucher - with one prize-voucher winner drawn at the Club each week of the series. The overall divisional winners at the end of the series will also go into a final draw, with one lucky winner receiving a $5,000 Concierge Traveller voucher.

"Concierge Traveller is delighted to commence our partnership with the CYCA as the naming-rights sponsor of the Spring Series for the next three years," Concierge Traveller Managing Director, David Greenland said.

"We see sailing and travel as kindred hobbies - those who love being on the water and the thrill of a race also love the adventure of seeing the world.

"As a boutique travel agency, Concierge Traveller can offer CYCA Members unique, inspiring and exclusive experiences from around the globe, providing the ultimate in personalised travel.

"We also offer CYCA Members exclusive travel benefits and special deals."

The CYCA is delighted to have Concierge Traveller backing its Spring Series.

"Concierge Traveller help people plan amazing experiences - and with Concierge Traveller's support the CYCA will be able to take Spring Series winners to more places than ever before," CYCA Commodore Paul Billingham says.

"In addition to their financial support of the series, to be able to offer $7000 worth of travel prizes each year across three years is a big coup and something we think is a big drawcard for the Club and the participants.

"We're excited to have another new sponsor on board! Thanks to David and the Concierge Traveller family for their support of the series and the CYCA in general."

Please note that a person from the crew must be there to collect the voucher, or else it will be redrawn.

Racing in the 2019 Concierge Traveller Spring Series begins on Sunday 11 August at 2pm. Enter online via cyca.com.au/online-entry.
