For a fun and competitive day on the water of Tasman Bay you can enter on your own or in a team. Teams need 4 team members, or we can find you a team, to race in an OC6 waka. We will provide a steerer, basic instruction and all the equipment. All you need is enthusiasm and a sense of adventure! If you have your own V1 or OC1, you can enter the long distance singles race (15km - 18km).
