Southern Dragons

CCWC 2026 that’s a wrap! 🐉

What a campaign for our Southern Wāhine. What a way to wrap it up with some well deserved beverages ❤️

We finished our final race with a 7th place finish in the world in the 2km, and fastest crew in the Southern Hemisphere in all 3 race categories for the small boat premier women division! 🌏🔥

From the first paddle to the final finish line, this crew gave absolutely everything. The early mornings and late nights, long training sessions, cold weather and water, sore bodies, big laughs, tough races and unforgettable moments have all been worth it.

To finish 6th, 7th and 9th in the world against the best crews on the planet is something we can be incredibly proud of.

A huge thank you to everyone who supported us, backed us, sponsored us, followed along and helped get us to Taiwan. You were part of this journey too. 🇳🇿🇹🇼

Southern Wāhine. Fastest in the SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE. Now that’s something we are so proud of.🏆🌏

Until next time ❤️🐉

DAY 11 RECAP

Day 11 was our chance to slow down, have some fun and enjoy a day together at Farglory Ocean Park 🐬🎢

What made the day even more special was seeing how much of the park’s focus had moved around ocean education and conservation. From learning about marine life and ecosystems, to their work supporting ocean clean-ups, sea turtle rescue and coral reef conservation. Although most were in Chinese it was easy to understand what they were mostly trying to educate.

We got to enjoy the rides, see the animals, take in the views and, of course, have plenty of laughs along the way! 😂

Time to rest and hit the 2KM tomorrow!
