Wislang takes on the world
As Daryl Wislang walked the gauntlet of sailing fans, media and curious bystanders keen to see what all the commotion was about, he looks up at the pavilion containing friends and family and waved goodbye to his wife Jess and six month old daughter Pearl. It’s the last time he’ll see them for around 23 days and he says leaving them is toughest part of his job – a job widely regarded as one of the toughest in the world.

he spoke with Waimea Weekly just half an hour before he hopped on his yacht for the next leg of the race to China – a leg which his team is currently leading at the halfway mark.

The Department of Conservation is urging fishers to take care using set nets in Tasman and Golden bays after two Hector’s dolphins were found dead in Tasman Bay last week, one in a set net. The recreational fisher who found the dead Hector’s dolphin calf in his set net near Wakefield Quay in Nelson last Friday immediately contacted DOC about the tragedy. The Nelson man, who did not want to be named, told the Waimea Weekly that he was “distraught” after finding the dolphin and immediately informed DOC so they could warn other setnetters that the endangered dolphins were in Tasman Bay. “I’ve been setting a net there for years and went down to catch a few fish to show my grandchildren,” the man says. “I’ve never seen Hector’s dolphins in the bay and was distraught when I found one in the net - I was so

upset.” A dead adult Hector’s dolphin was then found in the Waimea Estuary off lower Queen St near Richmond on Sunday. The cause of the dolphins’ deaths is still to be determined. The calf is to be autopsied at Massey University to establish how it died - the adult is too decomposed to autopsy and it has been buried. DOC Acting Motueka Conservation Services Manager Chris Golding says the young Hector’s dolphin had been accidentally caught in the set net and the recreational fisher had done the right thing in reporting it to DOC. Set netting poses a major threat to Hector’s dolphins which are unique to New Zealand. They are only found in inshore waters, often close to shore, making them vulnerable to getting

Nets a threat to Hector’s FROM PAGE 1 entangled in set nets and drowning, particularly when seawater is murky reducing visibility. “The adult dolphin was possibly the calf ’s mother. It had been dead for some time when found,” says Chris. “Hector’s dolphins are known to be in Golden Bay and have been seen off Abel Tasman National Park and other western areas of Tasman Bay. There have been a few reported sightings of Hector’s dolphins in the last couple of years off Nelson
and Rabbit Island. “The finds of the two Hector’s dolphins in Tasman Bay serve as a reminder that care is needed in use of set nets to avoid accidentally catching dolphins.” Chris says nets should not be set overnight and fishers should stay with their nets at all times, keeping watch for dolphins. Anyone catching a marine mammal in a set net must report it to DOC. DOC is also asking people to report sightings of Hector’s dolphins by calling 0800 DOC HOTline (0800 36 24 68).

Nelson’s Daryl Wislang leading Volvo Ocean Race FROM PAGE 1 family. “It’s pretty hard with a six month old baby, I’m going to be at sea for more than half of her first year of life so I’ll miss quite a few things, but that’s the way it goes.” He says he wanted to come back for a third race for one main reason – to win it. “I love the Volvo Ocean Race for the challenge, the camaraderie and the long-lasting friendships that you make with your crew mates,” he says. “But the real reason I’m back is the fact that I haven’t won one yet. It’s time to put that right and I’m confident the Abu Dhabi team gives me the best chance of that.” Daryl’s team is joint leaders after the first three legs and he says he’s confident they can take the whole race out.
“We have a really experienced and professional team so we’re aiming to win the race.” It’s the third round-the-world race for Daryl, after racing for Spanish-based Telefonica Blue in 2008/09 and with Camper Team New Zealand in 2011/12. In those races he finished third and second respectively. This year the race started in Alicante, Spain, before heading to Capetown, Abu Dhabi, China, Auckland, Brazil, Newport in the United States, Portugal, France and then finishing in Sweden. As boat captain, Daryl is in charge of getting everything ready on the boat and making sure the team has all the equipment it needs. It also means if something breaks down, he’s the first called on to fix it. The race is expected to arrive in Auckland in late February before leaving for Brazil in early March.

Nelson’s golden summer It’s been a golden summer already for Nelson with retail, hospitality and tourism figures pointing to the region’s busiest summer for years. Last week Paymark, the country’s largest eftpos provider, released stats that showed Nelson was second in the country for spending growth in the month of December. An extra $9 million was spent in Nelson during the month, compared to last year. Much of that increase has been put down to spending in the hospitality and tourism industries and president of the Nelson branch of Hospitality New Zealand, Ron Taylor, says that is showing at the tills of local restaurants, cafes and bars. “It has been a good summer

and so far everyone is saying they’ve been pretty busy. All of the holiday makers coming into town have been in a joyous mood as well, so it’s been a really good atmosphere so far.” The number of tourists in the region is also higher than normal. Information released by Nelson Airport shows 44,010 people flew into the airport in December, up from 42,833 last year and the highest on record. Nelson Tasman Tourism CEO, Lynda Keene, says an improved economy in New Zealand and globally means tourism figures are getting back to what they were before the global financial

crisis in 2008. She says the return of traditional tourists from Britain, the United States, Europe, Australia and Germany is mixing with new tourists from India and China, and, of course, Christchurch – to give the region a “very vibrant tourism market”. “Cantabrians are our major domestic market and they traditionally stay at Tahunanui, Kaiteriteri and Golden Bay. This year we have seen an increase in numbers in comparison to the last couple of years because of the stability of the economy, plus things settling down a little more in Christchurch. Cantabrians are holidaying like they used to”, says Lynda.

Fashion double at Nelson races It was a case of deja vu for winners of this year’s Fashion in the Field with Brightwater’s Sarah Earwaker and Richmond’s David Hope completing their second double on the catwalk at the Nelson Harness Racing Club’s meeting at Richmond Park on Sunday. Sarah and David held off challenges from “an absolutely amazing” line-up of contestants in the annual fashion contest that attracted 16 men and 35 women. It was the second time the stylishly-dressed fashionistas have taken out the contest after both winning in 2013. And once again, Sarah, 19, showed that looking glamorous isn’t about spending the big bucks. Two years ago, she wore a friend’s dress and this year she hunted out bargains on-line purchasing her cream dress on-line from ASOS and her shoes on E-Bay. “I love the classic look so I wanted something simple but that was also a little modern,” Sarah says. “I do a lot of shopping on-line so it doesn’t cost

The fillies fashion trifecta was completed by Monique Crawford who was second with Vicky Franklin third. David won a $200 Richmond Mall voucher, Bolle sunglasses from Harrington Eyecare and
$200 worth of skincare products from Oxygen Skincare. Rob McKegney was second and Adam Sweeting third in what head judge, Leonie Trathen, described as the best dressed men’s field yet. “The men this year were amazing,” Leonie says. “They made it very hard to find a winner. “In the past the guys just tended to turn up or enter for a laugh. This year they really raised the bar - they were very styley.”

Eighteen years ago Ted Clark was counting down the days to his retirement. Last month he finally did it, ending a long and varied career than included spending the last 45 seasons at the Alliance Nelson meatworks. Ted, who at 78 years old would have to be one of the oldest freezing workers in the country, started at the plant in 1969 after six years as a policeman and seven as a male nurse at Ngawhatu. “I reckoned I would have retired at 60 if they hadn’t raised the age to 65,” Ted says. “I was 59 and 11 months when they did that so I kept working. “Then I got to 64 and we shifted to the new plant and I changed jobs from a slaughterman to a labourer so I stayed on. After that I just took it year to year and now I’m 78 and my body is telling me it’s time to go.” Ted says he started in the wool in the old plant and then worked on the slaughterboard after that. “We wore black singlets and the plant didn’t have any of the technology when I started. We were one of the first sheds to trial some of the new pelting machines - the national union tried to stop it and we went on strike for a month but the company put it in anyway. “In those days we were permanent. We’d

Sprig expands to Mapua A new Sprig & Fern Tavern is being opened in Mapua with the owners and licensees, Peter Fry and Sue Bloomfield, hoping to pour the first beer in early April. Sprig & Fern already has five taverns in the Nelson-Tasman region with number six to be opened in the former Tap Ale House and Restaurant on Aranui Rd. Sprig & Fern Brewery owner and head brewer, Tracy Banner says builders started renovating the premises this week with the upgrade expected to take about three months. “The builders are on site now and working on the main floor, we expect the renovation will take around three months to complete. The existing bar will be ripped out and relocated and you will see quite a transformation when it is all finished”, Tracy says. Peter says they have been planning to open a Sprig & Fern in Mapua since the Tap Ale House closed six months ago. They started renovating the building on Monday after receiving a resource consent from the Tasman District Council.

Getting ready to market your home
Christmas is over and New Year resolutions have been made. It is time to list your property. Here are some New Year tips for you: Remove all the signs of Christmas - cards, fairy lights, Christmas trees and proudly presented gifts that adorn the kitchen counters. Water your lawns to keep them looking lovely for the photo shoot. Tidy up house plants, clean the children’s fish tanks, take a good look around the dog kennels and sanitize the cat beds. If you have had guests that are smokers - check the gardens for tell-tale signs. Wash your rubbish bins to remove Christmas-cheer odours and put the recycling bin out (or away).

Black Cat is lucky after all Some may believe black cats are unlucky, but for one Lotto ticket holder the feline is about to bring them a whole lot of good luck. For the second week in a row, Powerball First Division was won and the winning ticket was sold at the Black Cat Store in Stoke. Rhonda Pyatt, previous owner of the Black Cat store for 21 years, now works at the dairy and says lotto ticket holders have been double-checking their tickets. “There have been five major Lotto prizes won at the store over the past twenty years, but the $5million prize is the biggest.”

The Arts and Media complex at NMIT ence ranges from pre-school to adults, for recreational or professional training. Jane’s Richmond and Upper Moutere dance classes focus on learning the technique of classical ballet, with units on theatre craft and modern jazz throughout the year also. Jane strives to provide a safe and encouraging environment to learn in where students get to experience the magic of creative movement, as well as technical elements. Jane’s classes promote good posture, poise, strength and creativity, as well as helping students develop other skills that can be applied to all areas of life. Students get a number of performance opportunities throughout the year, as well as IDTA examinations if they choose to. Jane welcomes you to contact her to learn more about her classes and there is no obligation to commit until after your first class.
Rebecca Bignall has been dancing since she was four years old and now, alongside her sister and fellow tutor Chelsea, is passing on her skills to those keen to be dancers too. Dance teaches children a number of different skills from co-ordination and agility to friendship and self-confidence. At Rebecca Bignall Academy of Dance, children are offered tuition in jazz, classical ballet or contemporary, as well as a special class catering to pre-school age children. Although expectations are high for dancers at the academy, Rebecca says students can enjoy dancing in a positive and compassionate environment. The academy also has plenty of opportunities for performing and the chance to dance competitively. Enrolments into classes have already begun, although lessons won’t begin again until Monday, 9 February. New enrolments can contact the academy at rbacademyofdance@hotmail.com or phone 021 183 6561.

The kids at Paula’s Preschool Richmond are almost certainly the youngest people in the country to receive a health and safety induction after they visited a construction site before Christmas. The children, aged two to five years, visited a house being constructed by GJ Gardner on Waverley St as part of their educational programme. Paula’s Preschool’s Claire Savage organised the visit through her husband Dylan Brown who works at GJ Gardner in Richmond. As well as the health and safety induction, the children also received specially-named high-viz vests to wear. Pictured are GJ Gardner Homes’ Steve Vercoe, second left, and Glen Jarvie, with Paula’s Preschool’s Sharon Gibson, left, and Cathy Brown and their children on site with their high-viz vests.

Sport Tasman’s Hayden Bryant is seeking more volunteers for the Black Caps match next Tuesday. Photo: Simon Bloomberg.
A sell-out crowd is predicted for the one-day cricket international between New Zealand and Sri Lanka next Tuesday – but volunteers are still needed. Sport Tasman are looking for volunteers to assist in the running of the event which takes place at the Saxton Oval on January 20. Around 72 volunteers are required to help out with queue control, car parking and traffic management. Volunteers will also assist with the set up and pack down of the event, and dealing with
spectators. Sport Tasman’s Hayden Bryant says they have many volunteers working during the World Cup matches, but more are required for the New Zealand v Sri Lanka one day international as it is set to be a sellout game. Nelson Cricket association general manager Richard Hayward says volunteers are invaluable. Nelson Cricket is a small operator and good volunteers are like “gold dust”. The organisation only has two fulltime staff and with an event as large as a one-day international they need a fair number of people to support

Local horses find success at Richmond races Simon Bloomberg
Senior reporter Reporter
simon@waimeaweekly.co.nz Richmond trainer, Brian Johnson’s patience paid off when Bishop Brian won the Route 6 Automotive/Top 10 Holiday Park Mobile Pace at the Nelson Harness Racing Club’s meeting at Richmond Park on Sunday. The giant pacer has taken a long time to mature and Brian and owner-breeder, Tom Fox of Mapua, have been forced to take a patient approach with the Pay Me Christian four-year-old. But that strategy paid off on Sunday when Bishop Brian won his fourth start in style cruising to the lead with a lap to run and then winning easily by one and quarter lengths. Bishop Brian started as favourite on Sunday after finishing fourth on the first day of the meeting on Friday. He had earlier finished fifth in his debut at Westport on December 26 and then fourth and third in his next two starts. “He’s a great big horse so he’s taken a lot of time to mature.” Tom says. “We’ve got a a Bettors Delight two-year-old, half brother to him at home and he looks like he’ll be the same.” Brightwater owner-breeder, George Hill, also enjoyed a rare success on his home track when his promising pacer, Arizona Atom, completed a double for the meeting on Sunday. Arizona Atom won impressively on the first day on Friday when he prevailed on debut in the More FM Pace and then backed up with an equally brilliant win in the Speights/Nelson Building Society Handicap Pace on Sunday.

Arizona Atom with connections, from left, Kristie Hill, NBS sponsor representative Toni Lane, George Hill and trainer Greg Hope after winning at the Nelson Harness Racing Club’s meeting on Sunday. Photo: Simon Bloomberg. Ohoka Arizona three-year-old gelding won easily on Friday but needed a sustained sprint to edge out Little Lion Man by half a length in a tight finish on day two. Although George trains many of his horses, he sent Arizona Atom south to Canterbury trainers Greg and Nina Hope to gain some experience at the workouts. “I worked him up here so I knew he could run a bit but he wasn’t getting the workouts he needed in Nelson so I decided to send him to Greg and Nina. I watched him when he won at the Methven workouts and Greg said he’d win on the first day at Nelson after that so we were pretty confident.” However, George may not get a chance to see Arizona Atom win too many more races as he is “on the market” to be sold. The good news for George is that he has a two-year-old half brother to Arizona Atom by Live or Die in the
paddock at his Waimea West property. Ian Thomas continued the good form of Richmond trainers, lining up Tattinger Rose to finish a close third to Secret Lotion in the Tyre General Mobile Pace. Tattinger Rose, which finished fifth on the first day of the meeting, appeared to making a winning run in the straight before Secret Lotion stormed through on the inside and favourite Usain Colt rallied to hold second. The Mark Jones-trained Johnny Fox completed a Cups double winning the Golden Edge Nelson Cup Prelude on Friday and the Nelson Pine Industries Nelson Cup on Sunday. Stradowan was second in both races. The country’s leading driver, Dexter Dunn, ended the meeting on 99 wins for the season after winning three races on Sunday. Ricky May finished the day on 49 after recording a big tally of seven wins over the two days.
PV Solar Systems - Taking the Power Back The team at Rowan Dron Electrical are passionate about harnessing energy from the sun and using it to power households. They have completed numerous solar installations throughout the region and their customers now enjoy dramatically reduced power bills. With a PV Solar System, PV solar panels convert sunlight into DC (Direct Current) electricity, which is then passed through an inverter creating viable AC electricity. This AC electricity is used to power the household, while any excess electricity you generate can then be sold back to the electricity companies. Because they use light from the sun (and not heat) they will continue to generate electricity even in light cloud. The cost of PV solar panels has fallen dramatically in the last few years while, at the same time, electricity costs just keep on rising. A typical 2kW system can now give you a 6.9% return on investment! That is more than your bank will pay and it means that your system will definitely pay for itself. The bigger the system, the bigger the return. The cost of installing a PV Solar System will vary depending on the number of panels you need and the complexity of the installation. An average family home will need a 2kW system which, fully-installed with panels and inverter,
costs around $8,000, excl gst. How long it takes for a system to pay for itself varies depending on the size, but an average system takes around 6-8 years to pay for itself completely. While it is possible to sell electricity back to the grid, not all power companies will pay you for your excess electricity and the prices they offer can vary. Rowan Dron Electrical can explain how to get the best price for your surplus generation. Their entire team are qualified solar installers, as well as being Certified Electricians with additional manufacturers training. They use the best quality gear, all manufactured in New Zealand and Europe, and their PV panels carry a 25 year production warranty, while your inverter is warranted for between 5 and 10 years. Rowan Dron Electrical are happy to provide a no-obligation, free, onsite assessment. Once they are confident that a PV system will work for you, they will put together a free quotation based on the correct system for your site and your power needs. Because they are electricians, they can advise you on ways you can maximise the savings from your system. Contact them for more information or to arrange your free household PV assessment.

Iron-women prepare for top races
Simon Bloomberg
Four Nelson female triathletes continued their preparation for some big challenges in the next two months when they competed in an Olympic distance triathlon at Rabbit Island on Sunday. Milly King, Eileen Searle, Carol Cooper and Jane Orbell contested the finish of the Nelson Triathlon and Multisport Club’s event with Carol just edging out Milly and Jane and Eileen finishing fourth. Carol finished the 1500m swim, 40km cycle and 10km run in 2 hours 34 minutes 58 seconds just 20 seconds ahead of Milly, 34 seconds clear of Jane and 3 minutes and 43 seconds clear of Eileen. But Sunday’s race was just a training run for the four athletes who are entered in either half or full iron distance races starting next month. Eileen is targeting Ironman New Zealand in Taupo on March 7, Milly is lining up in the Wanaka half iron distance race on February 22, Jane is entered in the Picton Half Ironman on February 7 and Carol is on track for the Melbourne Ironman on March 22. After winning her 50-59 age group in

In contrast, Milly was competing in only her third triathlon on Sunday and will be making her half ironman debut in Wanaka. “I’ve been a cyclist for a while and wanted to try something new,” Milly says. “This was my first Olympic distance triathlon so it’s a bit of a learning curve.” Jude Vincent, who was the fifth fastest woman on Sunday in 2hr 43min 22sec, will be making her iron distance debut in Challenge Wanaka on February 22. Jude’s husband Chris, who finished 13th on Sunday will be competing in his first half ironman at Wanaka while Eileen’s husband Rob, who finished fourth, will also be competing in Ironman NZ. Matt Newbury won Sunday’s men’s race in 2 hours 14 minutes 37 seconds, with Hayden Harper second in 2hr 19min 27sec and Alan Bryson third in 2hr 23min 16sec. Hayden Squance won the men’s sprint triathlon in 1hr 9min 53sec with Emily Lush winning the women’s race in 1hr 25min 8sec. Dan Busch won the men’s standard duathlon in 2hr 5min 6sec.
