This looks like the top 3 women.

She used an SIC X14 PRO(14' x 26") in the 5km.

I've just been having a look at the times and here is my take on it, I could be wrong but I believe they mixed the men's vets and the women's times.

I know I finished just in front of Penelope (the first woman) and it sounds as if there was an approx 2 minute gap between starts so Pea should have been 2 minutes faster than me but I am showing 2 minutes faster.

So I am thinking if you add 2 minutes to the men's vets and take 2 mins off the women's you will end up with near correct times.

Sorry (old) guys and I stand to be corrected......but anyway I still did cross the line before any females (even if they did start after me)

I reckon you are correct. For the top two in the vets to have done the times stated they would have had to pass me and the third placed open paddler and crossed the line 1 min before us.
No one passed us and they crossed the finish line about a minute after us.
Going by start line photos time stamps, the open men's and O40/O50 vets started 2mins apart give or take a few seconds. The timekeepers must have mixed up the two minute split starts; approx two minutes should be added to the vets finish times to be correct.
That said, the error in the stated finish times did NOT influence any placeings.
Even if you add 2 mins to the O40/O50 vets times, the top finishers still did a cracking time so credit where credit is due!!!!
