The group\u2019s trademark Beneteau has been a longstanding partner for Simpson Marine for the past 35 years, and boasts nearly 45 high-performance models in its range.\u00a0<br \/>\nThe Beneteau Cup Hong Kong will be a two-day regatta hosted by the Aberdeen Boat Club with a busy sailing and social programme. These include two races &#8211; Island Race on Day 1 and Pursuit Race on Day 2 &#8211; in the HKPN and Family Classes, with an evening Awards Dinner ceremony complete with live music at the clubhouse. The venue will be decked out with island-themed \u2018French Antilles\u2019.

With the support of Beneteau and the Aberdeen Boat Club we would like to invite all Beneteau owners with their crew, friends and family to the Beneteau Cup Hong Kong 2021.\u201d\u00a0<br \/>\nThe Beneteau Cup Hong Kong will support Splash Foundation, the only charitable organisation based in Hong Kong teaching under-resourced communities how to swim.<\/p>\n<p>\t             Simpson Marine &#038; Beneteau Launch Beneteau Cup Hong Kong <\/p>\n<p>\t             Simpson Marine &#038; Beneteau Launch Beneteau Cup Hong Kong <\/p>\n<p>\t             Simpson Marine &#038; Beneteau Launch Beneteau Cup Hong Kong <\/p>\n<p>\t             Simpson Marine &#038; Beneteau Launch Beneteau Cup Hong Kong <\/p>\n<p>\t             Simpson Marine &#038; Beneteau Launch Beneteau Cup Hong Kong <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simpson Marine &#038; Beneteau Launch Beneteau Cup Hong Kong Simpson Marine and Beneteau Asia have announced the launch of the first Beneteau Cup Hong Kong.
