The lakefront was the usual rush before a race, quick catch-ups had, and then out to the start, with a couple of crews lagging behind missing the green flag! All race categories had a good number of entries. Master Men Grizzlies Gold were fastest around the island, gaining them free entry for next year - Well done!
Congratulations to all the crews who participated and won some cash. Hei Matau reigned supreme taking out the Most Club points and scoring themselves One thousand dollars for their efforts. Awesome!
We continually strive to bring you a bigger and better regatta every year, so watch this space. As always, an event this size can only survive by the people that pull it together. Big cheers for our Te Au Rere Team, and our whanau of volunteers - Thanks heaps.

Last but by no means least,our Major Sponsors for the cash prize categories and spot prizes - Thank you so much!

We'll see you all next year. In the meantime, train to paddle - paddle to win ! Mauri ora!
