Matarangi Beach Enduro Race

We are excited to finally announce the First Round of the 2022 Summer Series on Sunday 5th March at Matarangi Beach, jet ski racing with the thundercats.  This stunning beach on the Coromandel Coast has it all; a long surf beach, perfect for swimming and a big sheltered harbour.   Vehicles are allowed on the beach.  Bring a gazebo and pickup a tasty lunch from the bakery at the small shopping centre up the road.

Racing with Thundercat Racing New Zealand is always fun.  This year they will complete their short course racing off the beach before the Enduro event.  Come early and watch the crazy speeds the boats reach and the antics of the drivers.  It’s a great spectator sport.

AND ….. there will be spot prizes on the day and prize money for place-getters.  So make sure you stick around for prizegiving after the event!!
