Are you the owner of Manukau Yacht & Motor Boat Club?
Join the Whānau at Manukau Yacht & Motor Boat Club!
Manukau Yacht & Motor Boat Club in Auckland is buzzing with sailing action for everyone, no matter your age or experience level. Gareth and the team are all about the Hartley 16s for the big kids and the Optimists for the juniors, hitting the water every other weekend when the tide's in our favour.
Whether you're keen on social sailing or competitive racing, they've got a jam-packed calendar with over 30 race days a year. If you're into teaching the littlies, their junior sailing lessons in Optimists are just the ticket. And don't worry if you’ve got a different boat—trailer sailers, dinghies, and multi-hulls are all welcome!
Launching your boat is a breeze with their three ramps and heaps of parking. And for those not on the water, the club’s spot by the waterfront is perfect for picnics, playing sports, or wandering over to Ambury Farm Park to feed the animals.
Parents, if you want your kids (ages 9 and up) to get into sailing, Gareth’s junior programme teaches them the ropes while you help out with the nitty-gritty of boat prep. It’s a brilliant way for kids to learn independence and have loads of fun.
Want to join in the fun or find out more about their sailing vibes? Flick Gareth an email at gareth3933@gmail.com or check out their website and Facebook page for all the latest. The club’s a proud part of the NZ sports scene, backed by Sporty.nz—a nifty platform that makes sports admin a breeze.
