Canoe Repairs as at 12 April 2021

Thanks to those members who are vigilant in reporting repairs required to the waka.  We have spent quite a bit of time since March 2020 repairing old and recent wear and tear to the waka.  We currently have 2 waka out of action until the repairs are complete:

• Pita (Green Single)
• Paripari (Pegasus single)

We have put carpet strips down at the shed for placing between stacking canoes to protect ama and kiato.  Please make sure you use them when stowing the waka.

The cleaning down has been awesome with 99% of the members soap washing our equipment and using salt away on our singles and doubles metal fastenings etc.  Awesome work.  This will minimise our replacement cycle and reduce risk of equipment failure on the water.
