The Boat Club

The Te Atatu Boating Club was started by a handful of volunteers in the early 1960’s. They reclaimed some of the tidal area and made a rudimentary launching area. Prior to that, boats had been pushed through the mangroves for launching. In the mid-sixties there was more activity and sheds arrived on the site soon after. The early clubhouse was made of prefab ex-school buildings and the existing clubhouse was opened in 1984. A substantial wharf has been operating for quite some time with the boat club now hosting a large modern facility with the latest amenities and a warm friendly atmosphere. The Boat Club is a Great Venue for any occasion and can cater for most groups with a range of options to choose from.
