| - | Couple of minor BLIPS during yesterday, I forgot to turn up the water temperature so sorry to the wet entry participants.....of course, in the heat of the battle of assisting I told everyone to switch to Channel 80 for a talk around channel on the VHF....it might have been SMART for me let the paddlers know that!!! As one Spanish speaking Gent tried to have someone get a hold of us on 16, not only that, another Spanish speaking Gent tried to assist and they both couldn't figure out why they couldn't understand each other in English...if they had only used Spanish.....The windward buoy as the wind built did not want to stay in place with an anchor and a cinder block attached....have to use an old car next time! Those canoe guys...Holy &#@*%!! open canoe, no spray skirt, awesome Kudo's...I don't know about next year though, my pulse was twitching until they got to the North Buoy......Rescue/Safety boats were awesome, I thought! | + | Couple of minor BLIPS during yesterday, I forgot to turn up the water temperature so sorry to the wet entry participants…..of course, in the heat of the battle of assisting I told everyone to switch to Channel 80 for a talk around channel on the VHF….it might have been SMART for me let the paddlers know that!!!

| - | On another note, great Herald pics in today's Sunday Sports section, although I couldn't find it online???? What about our Bobble-head Paddler, pretty COOL huh?? Thanks to Paul Clement for that and I think some paddlers were content to assemble it rather then race..... | + | On another note, great Herald pics in today's Sunday Sports section, although I couldn't find it online????

| - | All in All...no blood, no fouls (although someone did cut the Outfall buoy and someone did shorten the course by driving to Marine Park then launching but promptly went for a Marine Biology Study....and I even scored a piece of Debbie's Gram Mama's cake!!) | + | All in All…no blood, no fouls (although someone did cut the Outfall buoy and someone did shorten the course by driving to Marine Park then launching but promptly went for a Marine Biology Study….and I even scored a piece of Debbie's Gram Mama's cake!!) |

| It was quite a fun race, though by the time I left the guy who lost his boat there was no one to be found on the course. I had troubles finding my way back to the start, let alone around the course a second time. | It was quite a fun race, though by the time I left the guy who lost his boat there was no one to be found on the course.

| - | What incredible action shots you have gotten -- and so many really clear, high res closeups, that really capture the intense emotion (and lots of happy faces). Nice job -- as always. | + | What incredible action shots you have gotten – and so many really clear, high res closeups, that really capture the intense emotion (and lots of happy faces).

| There are now, at only the second race of the season, so many terrific pictures that for next years Race Schedule Poster, we will have to just do one of those mosaic pictures, composed of hundreds of little pics. Kudos.\\ | There are now, at only the second race of the season, so many terrific pictures that for next years Race Schedule Poster, we will have to just do one of those mosaic pictures, composed of hundreds of little pics.
