Live drone video coverage of the Land Rover Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race this weekend

The CYCA will be live streaming the start of the Land Rover Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race for friends, families and sailing enthusiasts around the world to watch with drone video and live commentary adding a new dimension to one of Australia's biggest offshore races.

The broadcast, brought to you by Noakes Boat and Shipyards, will be available publicly on the CYCA Facebook page, the YouTube channel CYCA TV and also at the LRSGCYR website, www.goldcoast.cyca.com.au, starting at 1230hrs on Saturday 29 July. The stream will also be shown in the club.

The footage will be shot by drone allowing steady, low access video giving viewers clear oversight on the action, as well as boat-based cameras delving into the heart of the racing. Adding a new level of insight will be expert commentary from:

Sean Langman - Seasoned yachtsman and CYCA member who has skippered everything from 9m gaff rigged Maluka of Kermandi to the record breaking trimaran Team Australia

Olivia Price - Olympic Silver medalist and CYCA YSA graduate

This initiative is a new and positive step for the club exposing our high quality racing to be viewed by wider audiences. We hope you enjoy the show!
