The Oamaru harbour regatta was held at Friendly Bay yesterday.

The regatta has grown from the Victorian traditional boats day at the harbour, and the aim this year was to involve as many harbour users and organisations as possible to broaden its appeal.

It spanned from the historic to modern day and there were seagull, rowing, coracle and optimist races, as well as activities on the beach including sand castle and bathing beauty competitions.
