Does anyone have any experience sailing at Karioitahi? I tried a few weeks ago, and my tires kept getting stuck in the sand... is there a trick to it? A particular time? Low tide or mid tide? |

Talk about "day shar view". Its developing a bit like 2 weeks ago. There is a prediction of W/SW winds for Saturday 20 knts but dropping to 10 during the day. 20 would be great, 10 would be hopeless. |

Hi Jort, Not to much tire pressure and or a bigfork helps to. |

Wind is going SW tomorrow and building to 20+ knts on Sunday. Low tide west coast Sunday is about 3 pm so looking good. So get ready we may be able to hit the beach, either Karioitahi or Muriwai. |

Wow, what a blast. Not as much wind as predicted but enough to make for a fun afternoon. Alex joined us from Hamilton. Ray met up with an ex-pupil and his wife who have just moved to Waiuku. |

15+ blokarts turned up at Karioitahi to make the most of the low tide and onshore winds. |

Good SW winds Sunday so let's head for Karioitahi about 12.30 onwards. Please sail slowly past surfclub southward about .5 km before hitting top speed. We'll meet there and set up some beach sailing. |

Hi Jort, We’ve done a huge amount of sailing on this beach, and Rowena and Roger know it best (as they have hire experience there). From my experience: |

A steady 12-13 knts at Karioitahi yesterday, almost 90 degrees to the beach, meant good fun sailing for the 6 who turned up. |

Looking good for a beach blast Sunday for those around. West coast low tide about 1.30 with 20 knts rising to 30 predicted. 2m weather? |

Old Newbies report ;-) After a couple of sessions in the BPP, I turned up at Karioitahi a couple of weeks ago with my Trademe acquired kart to find out what Blokarting was all about. |

Didn't get to the park yesterday. A bit of rain and didn't look like much wind about. Next weekend is 100/50 km race, rescheduled from 2 weekends ago. |

Tomorrow is looking good for a beach meet. 20 knt SW predicted and midday low tide for west coast. |

What a blast! We got that 30 knots (plus a few higher gusts as well) and Russell tried out the 2 and the 3m, using me as the “control” with just a 3m. The results – very interesting! |

Accidentally left my Blokart branded gloves (size L) at Karioitahi beach last Saturday 20th on the carpark guardrail beside the grassy area next to the ramp. Anyone see them on Sunday? |

This is for any Auckland Club members who are planning to come out and help with the demonstration at Waiuku College tomorrow afternoon. |

Hi Hot Dogfish I gotta agree that MAKO has a nice ring to it. Sounds more sporting too! The sail looks like a fin. MAKO was looking pretty good in the race results until had had to withdraw on Sunday. |

The forecast is still for a change to light winds over Saturday and then going to NE building to 25 knts late Sunday. So bad timing for both west and east coast. |

hi, The good news is we have wind. The bad news is Saturday it's starting SW and then moving SE during the day. |

Message to Michael, a newbie who was at BPP on Sunday. You can get an entry form for the 100km race at the beach on race day or email Russell at the address on the club brochure. |

Mark the 19/20 April in your diary for the 2nd long distance race. We will have 2 distances this time with a shorter 50 km race for those who don't want to go the whole 100 km. |

As requested here are some views from the rest of the fleet – in this case "the rear". This really is a sad sack storey. |
