    ABOUT Bluefins Dragon Boat and Outrigger Canoe Club

    Annandale, NSW

    The rhythm of the water is in our blood. Bluefins Dragon Boat and Outrigger Canoe Club is a dedicated team bound by the pull of the paddle, the glide of the hull, and the shared pulse of Sydney Harbour. From the early dawn light cutting across the Opera House to the late-afternoon chop at Rozelle Bay, our paddlers pour their energy into every stroke.

    Who We Are

    We are a vibrant, inclusive community of athletes, enthusiasts, and teammates of all ages and backgrounds. Whether powering a 20-person dragon boat through a high-intensity sprint or navigating a 6-person outrigger canoe through open-ocean swells, Bluefins stands for teamwork, resilience, and a deep connection to the water. We welcome anyone ready to pick up a paddle, build strong connections, and push their personal limits.

    Why We Care

    For us, this club is far more than just a place to train; it’s a sanctuary, a fitness hub, and a supportive network. The water grounds us, builds our mental resilience, and fosters a spirit of unity that carries over into our daily lives. Preserving this space means keeping our community healthy, connected, and accessible to everyone who wants to experience the magic of paddling on one of the world's most iconic waterways.

    What We Are Raising Funds For

    To keep our boats gliding safely and competitively, we are raising funds to support our essential day-to-day operations, maintenance, and equipment repairs:

    • General Operations: Covering vital administrative costs, insurance, and equipment storage to keep the club running smoothly year-round.
    • Repair & Maintenance: Restoring fiberglass hulls, replacing worn outriggers, re-gripping paddles, and maintaining safety gear to ensure our paddlers remain safe on the harbor.

    How We Plan to Make It Happen

    Through community-driven fundraising initiatives, local events, and the generous contributions of supporters like you. By bringing together our paddlers, supporters, and harbour community, every dollar raised goes straight back into the fleet and facility, ensuring Bluefins remains strong, safe, and ready for every season ahead. 🌊🚣‍♂️🐬
