It seems that the Waka Ama Championship people will have our den until late Sunday, so we will shift the swamp test to the next Sunday (29 April) at 1pm.

Would you rather sail a cutter, or...
...would you rather sink it?
Rarely does an opportunity come along to deliberately sink our sailboats, but here we are!
As part of our cutter survey certificates, we occasionally need to perform what's called a 'swamp test' to evaluate the buoyancy of each vessel.
Basically it's a chance for some good fun in the water, and we'll throw on some sausages and hot drinks to warm you up afterward.
We'll do this at the den on Sunday 29 April (updated), starting at around 1pm. Come on down, bring your togs, and be ready to play Captain Of The Titanic!

Thanks to those who came out last weekend for the fun sail. There was a good wind which made for some quick tacking practice. It would be awesome to do this several times over the off-season to keep our skills sharp.
Cheers,
Randall

Napier Regatta cancelled
Hello all,
The weather has done in the Napier Regatta this year. I just got the call from the host who says the conditions are simply atrocious.
So we shall have to give it another go next year. In the meantime, enjoy your Easter weekend!
