Keep up to date with what's going on around the Manukau Harbour, South Auckland, with all that matters to sailing enthusiasts. The Manukau is NZ's second largest harbour, very tidal, and houses five active sailing clubs. It is on the west coast, and there is at least one big multi-club invitational regatta each year. This site affiliated with Weymouth Yacht Club, which is on the fringe of Manukau City.

Sailing at MYMBC this Sunday.
Race 2 of the Manukau Yacht and MotorBoat Club's winter series is scheduled for Sunday July 3rd.
Start Time is 1100, so make sure you leave plenty of time to rig.
The forecast according to Windfinder is fine, some light cloud, and easterly 10 knots gusting toward 20.
With a high of 14 degrees, wrap up warm, and the sailing should be great!
Clubhouse on Kiwi Esplanade, half a k past the outboard boating club buildings.

Manukau Winter Series 2011
Race 1 of the Manukau Yacht and Motor Boat Club's Trailer Yacht Winter Series was cancelled today due to some really nasty weather.
From any other direction, the wind would have been great, but in the North-East of today, launching would have been treacherous, and the chances of boat damage quite high.
Upcoming race dates are:
July 3, 1100 Start.
July 17, 1100 Start.
July 31, 1015 Start.
August 14, 1015 Start.
August 28, 0930 Start.
To get there, jump off the motorway at Coronation Road, follow the signs for Mangere Bridge Village (or Township) and once past the small roundabout look for Kiwi Esplanade on the left. Follow Kiwi esplanade until you find the clubhouse. Please note: the clubhouse is another 1/2 km past the Mangere Boat Club buildings.

Manukau sailors at PLSC
Laser sailors from Waiuku and Weymouth clubs fared well when visiting Panmure Lagoon Sailing Club this afternoon. Although neither of them scored a win, both showed good speed, finishing in the top bunch and challenging for the lead in all races.
Great fun racing, with a good bunch of sailors. PLSC is only around 15 minutes drive from Weymouth, on Ireland road.
