Mujaji is one of the oldest dragon boat racing clubs in South Africa and is named after the Rain Queen, a dragon that is said to look like a great feathered serpent who sometimes lives on Table Mountain.
Initially paddling as an enthusiastic Safmarine corporate team in the 2nd Cape Town International in 1996, the paddlers formed the Safdragons club in 1998. This name was changed to Mujaji in 2004 in time for the Club Crew World Championship (CCWC), Cape Town
Mujaji's home is in Cape Town, one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
Currently we are paddling in the canals of Century City / Canal Walk
