🚤 Boat Ramp Channel Update
We've received an update from the dredging operator regarding the channel at the Wharf St boat ramp.
After launching, the most accessible route is currently to hug the wharf, staying inside the red line shown on the attached map, rather than travelling through the poles as previously directed over the last few months.
Please note this information has been passed on to us by the dredging operator. Conditions on the water can change, so it's always the responsibility of each skipper/boat operator to assess the conditions and navigate safely.
Stay safe out there, and thanks for helping spread the word!

Whanganui Coastguard are hosting a Maritime VHF Operator Certificate Course on Saturday 22 August at Coastguard HQ, 7 Wharf St, Wanganui.
It is a Public Boating Education Course and they welcome registrations from local boaties.
If anyone is interested and wants further details, timing, costs etc it can be found at

Day Skipper, Boatmaster & boating education courses | Coastguard Boating Education Huge range of boat training courses for all ages and experience, including Day Skipper, Boatmaster. All types of vessels & various study options.

It’s really unfortunate that we even need to post and share this but recently there has been a rise in the illegal dumping of fish frames and other waste at some of our slipways. The Whanganui Awa Safety User and Steering Group have released the attached statement and we ask that this behaviour please stops immediately for the benefit of everyone.

Tonight! See you down at the WMSFC tonight for this awesome info evening! No need to register if you havent already, just come on down !

This Thursday at the Wanganui Manawatu Sea Fishing Club on Wharf Street.
7pm.
All welcome!

Official Results from the two week Kings Birthday competition. We can’t do these without our major comp sponsors Wight Aluminium and Diggers Services so a huge shout out to them.
