Well we are going to be quite busy over the next two weekends with 2 very different races.
This weekend Sunday October 10 is an Open Harbour race, though it will be close to the shoreline and with a bit of good weather we will be able to have some good clean downwind and up wind legs on the course we set for that day. Even though I have mentioned the range of craft this event is open to..........don't forget that if you are a capable paddler in a multisport kayak or adventure racing double just roll on up and take part......... All the event information is on the previous posting.
Currently the long range weather forecast for Sunday looks like we could be getting 30kph Notherlies, though it may be a South Westerly if that weather pattern speeds up
Next Weekend Saturday October 16 we are heading over to the Wairarapa for the Ruamahanga River Kayak Marathon/Relay race. This is an event that we picked up from Shane and Jill Ross as they have passed on a few of their events to free up some time for other Family activities........just scroll down the page to see all the event information for that one.
Also from Shane and Jill we picked up the Greta Point Tuesday Twilight Kayak Series this starts on Nov 16 to Dec 21 then Runs From Jan 11 to March 29 at the end of each block the event has the traditional feed and drinkies.
With all the Welly Paddlers Events you can expect to get "the best bang for your buck" with all entry fee money going into the Spot prize pool for that race.............You'll get race results that night and also one or two photos of yourself and your paddling mates out on the water and you can download them for free!
Also if you'd like to get into some Waka Ama Paddling the Hawaiki Nui Club are re starting a Sunday Paddle Series that they used to run back in the day.
