Whitianga Festival of Speed

Hello Paul,

Once again thank you for a great event at Whitianga last weekend.
I know our guys enjoyed themselves and we have had positive comment back from spectators from the Big Boat race. The race was a lot of fun and we would definitely be up for a similar event next year, or even at Marsden Cove this November. It would be great to see the Festival continue and expand to include more of a show for boats like ours, possibly add a parade out past the marina to the race start on the Saturday. Spectators could get a great view from the marina wall or similar.

From our point of view it would be great to expand the event to start on the Friday afternoon and carry on a bit later on Sunday – especially if there is a boat show event on as well. Possibly have us do an activity on both the Saturday and Sunday – maybe a race one day, and a manoeuvring docking display / contest on the second day.

Any photo’s or video coverage of us during the weekend which you can give us would be greatly appreciated.

I look forward to keeping in touch and getting involved with your next event. Please pass on our appreciation to Leigh and Gray.

cheers
