Big shout out to the lakes entrance SLSC for organizing such a great event.
Fantastic conditions on the day. Was great to meet all the SUPVIC crew. Big kudos to the guys n gals that did the full 27k race, Chris, Warwick and dean the top 3.
Looking forward to giving the 27k a crack next year!!

Good work guys,

Well done to you Kieran, you smashed them on the 13km course. Epic race for all involved.
It would be great to see more interstate crew down here next year.

Hey Keiran,
Great to meet you.
Well paddled, I think you've got a few SV crew scratching their heads.
Make sure John Engel keeps his ageing body together for next year's event!

Nice to have met you too Warwick. Yup, well be sure to keep john training and keep him together.
I think I got some lucky bumps along the line I picked. The guys seemed to favour staying by the island on the right but I thought I'd take a punt and stay wider to get more wind and potential bumps. Meant 13k of paddling on my left hand side but it was worth it I think.
Caught a very nice boat wake towards the end too.

Well done guys and girls. Looked like a great event. Sorry the back stopped me from coming down but I'm already getting a crew together for the winter Classic in August. looking forward to the thermal springs after racing already.
Glad that Kieran had a great race - sorry , i forgot to warn you about him.
