Hi All, we have a quiz night coming up on the 8th of October at CBK Craft Bar & Kitchen Kaiapoi and need items to auction off to raise some funds. If you are a business owner that has some services we can auction off, a business that has some excess stock that could be auctioned off to give you some exposure, or you have something that you could donate that would help us out then please give Sam a call on 029 200 4554 or message the club through this page. Thank you legends, we really appreciate it!

Hi Starling Team - an exciting traveller series for the upcoming season. We are hoping some of our Waimak Sailors can join in these events.

One of our members is travelling the world and sent us these photos of men making sails near Cairo.

"Thought of you all when I came across these men sailing making in Azwan - 900+ km south of Cairo. Gwenda"

We are very lucky to have John Simpson as our club photographer, a wonderful volunteer who captures our keen sailors and crew at Waimakariri Sailing Club.

Here are photos from yesterday's winter sailing. Thanks John.
