Welcome to the Takapuna Beach Cup 2009
The Takapuna Beach Cup is a two day competitive outrigger race held on the 14th & 15th February on Takapuna Beach, Auckland, New Zealand.
How about joining us here in Auckland to compete in NZ's premier outrigger canoe event.
Saturdays race is a 42km OC6 Marathon Changes Race around some of the inner islands of the Hauraki Gulf followed the next day by a 24km OC1 & OC2 Relay Race off Takapuna Beach.
Since the inaugural event in 2007 the event has grown with over 500+ paddlers competing from NZ and overseas. With your participation the event will be an even bigger success in 2009 pitting the best of NZ's paddlers with crews from around the pacific.
Takapuna Beach is in the heart of Aucklands North Shore, an idyllic lifestyle location with cafes, bars, shops adjacent to the beach overlooking the island volcano of Rangitoto. Extend your stay a few days and see what Auckland and NZ has to offer.
We would like to see you here on the weekend of 14/15 February to make 2009 a memorable one on your outrigging calendar.

The event is proudly hosted by the Taniwha Grizzlies/ Taniwha Canoe & Dragon Boat Club / Takapuna Beach Cup Race Committee and sanctioned by the Auckland Regional Outrigger Canoe Association.
