Written by John Freer on March 17, 2025
A record number of vehicles with record numbers of supporters and spectators – we are taking Repco Beach Hop 2025.
With the 25th anniversary event being only a little over a week away, organiser Noddy Watts, is indicating a super special event and possibly the biggest on record.
An indication of the support for this year was demonstrated when entries opened with 600 vehicles beg registered in the first 10 minutes.
As in past years, Waihi will host the event opening, the show returns to Pauanui for the first time in a number of years on the Thursday, it’s the Castrol Thunder cruise to Onemana on the Friday, Whangamata being Beach Hop central on the Saturday and the Sunday.
Noddy has told us that everything is in place, more than 200 volunteers are primed and ready. You can hear an interview with Noddy by opening the link below.
