The Mt. Pacific Downwind is New Zealand’s answer to the great Molokai Challenge in Hawaii. In a new totally innovative approach to ocean racing this radical event involves barging paddlers and their craft (single Surf Ski’s and Waka ama only) a total distance of 25km offshore and then setting them off on a exhilarating pure downwind race back to shore, finishing in front of the summer crowds on Mt. Maunganui Main Beach.

Many thanks for your help promoting this new event.
