Christchurch Blokart Club

General information

Blokart sailing is an exciting sport attracting young and old, able and less able around the world. Christchurch is a great place to sail blokarts thanks to our regular winds and variety of locations. The Canterbury Blokart Club is based at the Air Force Museum of New Zealand, the former Wigram Air Force Base. We occasionally sail at New Brighton Beach, and Lake Ellesmere when the lake shore is dry.
Club racing occurs each week and many of our members regularly travel around the country to compete in competitions against other New Zealand clubs. Members have also competed in the last few World Championships Events, the last of which was held in Perth in early 2014.
The club is a friendly bunch of people of all ages willing to help others to improve their sailing.
Come along and give blokarting a go - we sail at the back of the airforce museum in Wigram, Christchurch every Sunday from about 12-4 (weather dependent). The club has karts available for hire and tutors on hand to help beginners get going.
