Safety Boats

Safety Boat - Puhoi River launch from Wenderholm boat ramp

Looking for 2 shallow draft boats to be on the water for various amounts of time. Each boat will need to come with their captain and have room for a First Aid person

Team of 2 -3 people, requiring own motor boat, of shallow draft, 1 person must hold current First Aid cert. To assist any competitor in difficulties, as requested. Time required from 9 AM (start time plus 1.5 hours) to travel up river (1/2 hour) until last competitor arrives at Wenderholm

Boat launches from Wenderholm, and dependent on draft may not be able to navigate all the way up the river to Puhoi
