The Government has announced that New Zealand can safely move out of Alert Level 4 lockdown at 11.59pm on Monday 27 April to Alert Level 3 for two weeks.

As a club nothing changes, training is still suspended.

Alert L4 - No Water Sports allowed as these activities expose participants to danger or may require search and rescue services.

Alert L3 - Keep it alone or in your bubble, (no congregating) keep it low risk (no activities you have not tried before or are inexperienced in), and also keep it non-motorised. Allowed: swimming, surfing, kayaking, canoeing, rowing, windsurfing and paddle boarding, but stay close to shore. Not allowed: Boating, sailing and jet skis.

Choose to be safe if you do decide to go out on the water, the same safety rules apply.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ariana and her children for checking on the W6 waka (they were full of water) and locking the equipment box.

Stay safe!, Stay strong! and Stay home! for as long as possible
