The much awaited Manly Inflatable Boat Race is back!
Now on its 15th year, the Manly Inflatable Boat Race 2019 is going to be bigger, better, and wilder than before!
The event is happening at the Shelly Beach on the 17th of March 2019, from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. The race kicks off at exactly 10:30 a.m. and followed by an awarding ceremony and post-race gathering at the Hotel Steyne Manly.
The Manly Inflatable Boat Race is iconic, and it is greatly enjoyed by both Manly locals and visitors. Its main highlight are the contestants themselves who are all expected to come up with their most creative and wacky inflatable boats and matching costumes.
Just imagine a sea full of colourful inflatable boats and competitive racegoers on their vibrant costumes battling against the Shelly beach waves as they paddle all the way up to the finish line. It sure sounds fun and exciting, right?
Given its splashin’ success over the years, this year’s race is expecting more than 800 participants and spectators combined. It is definitely going to be a fun-packed day at the beach for young and old.
