It started out not too bad, then the weather turned atrocious!!
The 2nd race was called off after 2of3 laps as it was raining so hard!! Most people were thoroughly wet and cold, so the rest of the racing was called off. Also, there was a bit of debris coming down the river. Of course, it came out fine after almost everybody had pulled their boats out of the water and got themselves into dry gear!!
Even so, it was a good social occasion with some 30 boats plus 3 support vessels. We had a great barbecue, etc., and everybody was happy.
