History:
The Wellington Club was formed as an incorporated Society in November
1957. Racing started at Evans Bay then moved out to Porirua Harbour. The
club purchased a boat shed where the existing club stands now, then in
the 70’s the boat shed next door was purchased and a few dedicated
members ripped a few walls out and joined the two clubs together to form
the Wellington Power Boat Clubrooms. In 1993 the Club pulled them down
and built the clubrooms we have to-day with the help of a significant
donation from Sir Len Southward. These rooms were officially opened in
January 1994.
