  • 1973 Darwin Dili Race : Overview

    The inaugural Darwin Dili Yacht Race left Darwin at 1100 hours on 18 August 1973 for the 425 nm voyage to Timor across the Timor Sea.  Six competitors took 4-5 days to reach Dili, but they arrived well in time for the Presentation Night on 25 August, where the Governor of Portuguese Timor, Colonel Alrea Aldeia, presented magnificent trophies to all competitors.
    Indeed, the Race created a number of firsts:
    • The first Australian yacht race to a foreign country
    • The first overseas yacht race catering for multi and mono-hulls, and commencing in Australia and
    • The first time that the people of Darwin and the people of Timor actively collaborated in a sporting event that was to result in friendly co-operation, good will and mutual respect.

    The people of Timor have a longstanding affinity with Australians, beginning with the Australian soldiers trapped on the island during World War II and who, with the help of the Portuguese and the Timorese, became a thorn in the side of the Japanese occupation force. It was fitting therefore that the inaugural Darwin Dili Yacht Race coincided with the survivors of “Sparrow Force” conducting their first reunion in Timor since the war. It was a time to renew many old friendships from harder times and to establish many new friendships from better times.

    The words of the Organising Committee were prophetic “This is the beginning of the race.  The future will be a very interesting one.”

  • 2002 The Friendship Rally

    It was with pleasure that in 2002, that CYANT members assisted with the organising of a yacht race to Dili to coincide with the celebrations of Timor-Leste’s independence and creation as the world’s youngest nation.  8 yachts from Darwin made the voyage.

    Eight yachts with about 40 crew members took part in the 400 nautical mile race, dubbed the ``Friendship Rally'', arriving in Dili in time to witness the celebrations of East Timor's Independence Ceremony. 

    The winning yacht was Breakaway, a 12.8m keel boat cruising racer.Khamsam, a 10.4m Kelsall cruising catamaran was second, Penrod a 17m cruising catamaran was third and Sea Urchin, an 8.5m keel boat and the smallest in the fleet crossed the line fourth.

    Perkins Shipping, the 2002 sponsor and one of the original Darwin-Dili race sponsors attended the trophy presentations in Dili last Sunday including dual Olympic Gold medallist Susie O'Neill, International Olympic Committee Vice President Kevan Gosper and Australian Olympic Committee President and IOC Member John Coates.
    Terry Coulehan who sailed in the first two Darwin to Dili races in 1973 and 1974, accepted the winner’s cup on behalf of Breakaway.
     

    CYANT pays tribute to the many people, supporters and competitors who initiated the first Darwin Dili Yacht Race.  Their legacy lives on today in the many international yachting events that depart Darwin’s shores each year.
