MEDIA RELEASE
Both the Women’s and Mixed crews raced together first on the 10 mile course, which ran north from Anaehoomalu Bay then turned and went south to “Lone Palm†Point, and returned into the wind to finish at Anaehoomalu Bay, fronting the Waikoloa Canoe Club.
The 10+ mile Men’s course followed the same 10 mile route, with the winds having switched direction.
All paddlers received a 25th Annual Commemorative Race Tshirt and a delicious lunch, followed by the presentation of awards to the top 3 canoes in each division.
