The Southern Waratahs won three trophies and finished first in the B final of the women's 200-metre event.
The crew also won the B final of the women’s 500-metre race and was third in the 1km women’s final.
For a number of paddlers it was the last competition of the year before they represent Southern Region at the NSW State Titles.
The titles will be held at Penrith Regatta Centre on April 4.
Southern Region had a clean sweep at last year’s titles when it won the women’s, mixed and open divisions and will hope to repeat it success.
The Nature Coast Dragon Boat Club meets at the boathouse near Moruya Pool all year round on Tuesday nights at 5.30pm and Saturday mornings from 8.30am.
The club encourages new paddlers to join and offers free coaching and training at the first few sessions.
