Update from NIWA re Algae bloom in Manuwai reservoir attached FYI
Our recommendation to FNDC is to continue to restrict public access to the Manuwai Irrigation reservoir until further notice.
Irrigation water being distributed from the reservoir appears to continue to be below the minimum guidelines for stock consumption.

Club race Whangaroa 2-7-17
Lake Manawai was closed and Whangaroa was the alternative venue for Sundays Club racing Five boats turned up with very light westerly wind and threatening rain.
Racing was transferred to the outer course after the first three races in search of more wind . Racing was close and the venue was fine for One meter racing .Very pleasant environment and great for rigging up
