Shipboard setting for regatta day luncheon

The Royal New Zealand Navy will host the Auckland Anniversary Regatta luncheon on the frigate Te Kaha on January 29.

Following last year's successful lunch, the Navy has invited the Herald Foundation to repeat the occasion.

A limited number of tickets will be sold to the public.

Representatives of the foundation, as well as the Governor-General, the Maritime Commander Auckland and Te Kaha's commander will attend.

All money raised will go to charity: the Sea Scouts and Watersafe Auckland.

Te Kaha, anchored off North Head, will act as a marker for the regatta.

Tickets for the lunch cost $230 and are available from the Herald Foundation on 373-6400, extn 6449.

The New Zealand Herald Auckland Anniversary Regatta embodies Auckland's sailing spirit and its place in our history.
