The 2026 Tiger Hunt is set. There are two nights at St Helens, 2 nights in Hobart, a double nights stay in Tullah then a single night in Smithton before heading back to Devonport for the overnight sail home on Saturday night 21st March. You need to get yourself to our breakfast briefing at Devonport's Argosy Motor Inn by 8 am on Saturday 14th March with a full tank, fresh tyres (seriously) and faith in the leadership!
The format is a little different for this one with opportunity to switch between three groups on most days. The groups will run in parallel and have sport touring, 'tailored' dirt (to suit average experience on the day) and tourist foci. Hunters can also hive off and do their own thing at any time, as always.
The event is capped at 36 riders. Pillions and tagalongs do not count toward the cap but a registration deposit of $190 is required from all. It will be applied to a spread of things including a quality event T shirt, our breakfast briefing in Devonport and Tiger Hunt Dinner in Hobart. Any refunds will reduce in line with commitments made by the Club. No refunds will be made after 14th February 2026.
Trip Notes will be issued soon after registration. They outline the itinerary with everything you need to book ahead including accomodation. Hunters are encouraged to make their Spirit bookings, however, promptly after signing on. Expect plenty of company if you choose the day or evening sailing on Friday 13th March and return on the evening sailing on Saturday 21st March.
A contact list will be distributed within the group to assist interaction and sharing initiatives. The default is that you are on the list...please advise promptly if you want your email or mobile withheld as the list will go out in the first communication.
A Waitlist will operate should demand exceed places - don't be discouraged if the event fills early.
