-Kevin'​s race in the bay last night was really fun and refreshing (given the warm weather). Timing, safety boat, numbers, signed releases, good course, what more could you want. Well then dinner at Dos Pardares, which I couldn'​t make.  I can foresee in the future, if it's blowing from the south , good paddle up and a shot down wind.  Not too long, not too short. Just right for a evening paddle. Nicely done Kevin. D

-Thanks Duncan and everyone else who raced last night! Calm air and still water made for a 2.91 mile speed workout. Cryder took line honors and Kirk jumped out to an early lead in the point series by winning the largest division (surfski 41-60) and 2nd overall. Josh Dyck keeps moving closer to the front pack and Ana Swetish continues to best paddlers of all ages.

-Peter Marcus lead all OCs and Duncan took the top spot in the surfski Men of Distinguished Character and Duration division. It was great to see Rob Rogers and Dan Mayhew getting into the racing scene as well. 
- 
-In total there were 13 skis and 3 OCs. Next week will be Outrigger Week where we award double series points to all OC divisions followed by a post race party at Aloha Poke in Fairhaven. Hopefully our normal wind patterns return and we can set a downwind course (with better air quality).
