While we take a break from our regular programmes over the winter months, we still have an action-packed day of events on Closing Day to look forward to. We plan to go out with some Closing Day fun in the morning, high-stakes racing in the afternoon and a post-racing social gathering. Please save the date!
Wakatere Closing Day
Sunday 4th May 2025
Afternoon racing will feature the Closing Day Races and count as the final Season Points races for the 2024/25 season. That's two events in one.
It's been another huge season with lots to celebrate. Bring the whole family.
SCHEDULE
1100 parent-child Opti races
1230 briefing Closing Day & SP races
1330 first warning dinghy classes
1400 first warning foiling classes
1500/1530 club gathering after sailing
Fun Parent-Child Races
Parents, have you tried to get into an Opti lately? It's going to be so much fun for the kids to watch!
Sunday 4th May
Opti parent-child races
11:00am briefing on the beach
Rigged and dressed to sail at briefing time
This is open to EVERY WAKATERE OPTI SAILOR and it would be great to see a whole bunch of you from the C1 & C2 groups as well as Opti Green and Open fleet. If you are a sailor without a sailing parent we can probably find one for you - speak to someone official looking at briefing.
