Some more great photos care of the local paddle boat captain. An excellent supporter of our event.

Had a quick chat to Ross (Paraparaumu) regarding the Dam - Dam race, and very keen to put that on next year. Probably the weekend closest to the shortest day of the year, and make it an annual event. That would be 22nd June, 2013. If anyone is interested in a Summer race we can do that too of course.

Welcome Otunui. I am also a keen starter, I will spread the word around here. Hopefully weather gods are OK. Maybe rain date would be a good Idea.

You Kiwi's are a very strange bunch, don't mind motoring through floating rocks, but frightened of a little rain!

At least we attend events that are organised, in reasonable numbers and not just talk about it or create a whole lot of excuses as to why we cant attend. The floating rocks add a little twist to the event. Good luck with Hayling Island Event
