Regatta course passes Lions Park

Boats in the 10th anniversary Putt Putt Regatta on Sunday, October 28, will use Lions Park, Woy Woy, as a turning point in the race.

The race, organised by the Brisbane Water Marine Watch, will start at 10.30am at Davistown waterfront.

The course follows Paddy's channel to Lions Park, Woy Woy, then to Daleys Point, St Huberts Island bridge and finishing back at Davistown.

Onshore activities on the day include live bands, children's amusements, food and drink stalls as well as craft stalls.

Brisbane Water Maritime Watch area coordinator Mr Bernie Chaloner said he expected the day to be as successful as last years' event.

"Over 10,000 people attended last years regatta, with over 100 restored putt putts getting into the action," Mr Chaloner said.

"The regatta is a community event for all areas around Brisbane Water and is primarily developed to raise funds for local charities.

"It gives local putt putt boat owners a chance to participate in a wonderful event."
