Wairau Express

The 3rd edition of the “Wairau Express” is being held on the 10th of November 2013. It is shaping up as another great double header weekend in Marlborough, with the Queen Charlotte Classic the day before. This race is ideal for any multisporters looking for a great down river race before the Waimak Classic, and other events such as Coast to Coast. With very few down river races on the calendar, why not come along and check this out.

With prizes up for grabs for the first open man and woman across the line there promises to be plenty of action on the water.

The Wairau Express starts at the “narrows”, 12km from Renwick on State Highway 63 (all sign posted) and finishes under the State Highway 1 bridge near Tuamarina. A total distance of approximately 28km.

A grade two certificate is compulsory along with the appropriate safety gear as listed on the entry form.
