From 17th to 25th November, undoubtedly one of the most eventful in the living memory, the 11th Raja Muda International Regatta was coloured by many thrills and spills and heightened by uncharacteristically gusty winds.

Unprecedented strong wind with long tight reaching legs aroused much interest and the showdown at high noon on Bass Harbour for the racing classes, graced in royal fashion by the Raja Muda of Selangor to witness the final races and the presentation of his prestigious trophy at the gala awards ceremony at the beautiful and now Royal Langkawi Yacht Club.

In a conclusion, the yachting duel in Bass Harbour started with a bang and the successful conclusions of the RMIR 2000 should be truly a reason to celebrate.
