A Final placings were:
- U16 Quad: Abbey Mason, Anna Divers, Islay Merriman, Emily Esplin, coxed by Lucy Merriman – 2nd Place

- Intermediate Double: Abbey Mason and Emily Esplin – 1st Place
- Intermediate Single: Abbey Mason – 2nd Place
- Intermediate Single: Anna Divers – 3rd Place

The girls are now training for the Otago Championships which is held at Twizel over the weekend of the 14 to 15 December. This will be the biggest regatta of the season so far.
