NZ <strong>Surf</strong>boat c. 1946<br />
Muriwai way back!
WELcOME from our NZ President<br />
SLSNZ is excited to see the return of the <strong>Trans</strong>-<strong>Tasman</strong> <strong>Surf</strong> <strong>Boat</strong><br />
<strong>Challenge</strong> after disruption over the last few years.<br />
We welcome the Australian crews to beautiful Waihi Beach and<br />
congratulate the NZ crews on their selection for this <strong>Challenge</strong>.<br />
I’ll be there amongst the crowd to see the skills and fitness of both<br />
the Open and U23 crews and cheer everyone on. As an old surf<br />
boatie, although we didn’t have formal competitions then, I’m<br />
especially pleased to see the growth in women’s surf boat racing.<br />
Bring the competition, surf and weather on.<br />
Event HISTORY<br />
Marilyn Moffatt MNZM<br />
President, SLSNZ<br />
<br />
It was a dream of Waihi Beach <strong>Surf</strong> <strong>Boat</strong> legend Dan Harris QSM<br />
to bring a special boating event to Waihi Beach. North Island <strong>Surf</strong><br />
<strong>Boat</strong> Champs came to be through sheer hard work and a lot of<br />
hours behind the scenes, complete with its own medals, annual<br />
t-shirts and awesome burgers for all competitors.<br />
<br />
Driven by a vision shared with like-minded boaties to create a<br />
competition series just for surf boats, North Island <strong>Surf</strong> <strong>Boat</strong>s<br />
became one of the key events in the Summer <strong>Surf</strong> <strong>Boat</strong> Series.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Earlier this season, Dan was present for<br />
the launch of Waihi Beach’s latest <strong>Surf</strong><br />
<strong>Boat</strong>, aptly named “The Dan Harris”<br />
which included a blessing from local iwi<br />
kaitiaki Reon Tuanau of Ngāi Te Rangi<br />
and a lovely speech by Dan’s daughter,<br />
Janine O’Connor.<br />

Farewell Jim<br />
<strong>Surf</strong> <strong>Boat</strong> Crews and <strong>Surf</strong> Clubs in both Australia and New<br />
Zealand lost a legend last year with the passing of Jim<br />
Campbell. This weekend marks the first time that we are<br />
all together and offers an opportunity to say farewell in our<br />
usual <strong>Surf</strong> <strong>Boat</strong> way.<br />
<br />
Jim started at Avalon on the North Sydney Coast before<br />
moving to NZ and sweeping numerous crew at both Titahi<br />
Bay in Wellington and Mairangi Bay in Auckland. A life<br />
member of SLSNZ, Jim gave much and will forever be<br />
remembered by those of us who knew him - RIP Jim<br />
Big waves at Piha!<br />
