The rain at the finish line played havoc with our primary timing system, so we resorted to back-up timing in certain cases. While some paddler’s times and the margins between some combinations of paddlers are not 100% Omega timing grade they are very close, and most importantly the finish order is completely correct. We will learn from these issues and have a better system going next time.![]()
A big Thanks to everyone involved and the Kingston Beach Sailing Club for allowing us the use of an additional safety boat for this event.![]()
