KAYAK RACE - 2007 WINTER SERIES - Race 1 - May 13th
|
|
Marvellous weather greeted the paddlers for the first race of the season. A light south easter brought up a small 1 foot chop to get your spraydeck wet on the upwind and some moderate surf for the downwind (which bumped Derek up to a max speed of 15.6kph on a run - if you're interested)
