CANCELLED: Oamaru Harbour Regatta
"It is with regret that Waitaha PC cancels the Oamaru Harbour Event scheduled for the 8th and 9th of April 2022. This decision is based on a number of safety points that became obvious after a test run over the proposed courses and an unwillingness to put potential competitors and volunteers at risk. A big thanks to Tara from WANZ and Kevin from Oamaru Yacht and Powerboat Club who made the planning process to this point so much easier."
