Forecast for the weekend was not great but Onetahua put a super day on for us.
How many paddlers does it take to fix a Kiato? ‘Ohana missed the first race due to equipment malfunction but we got her going and did half a lap.
Lots of smiles lots of fun. We had some firsts. Jenn raced her OC1 for the first time. Yeah Jenn!
A few club members also got to race in ‘Ohana for the first time. It was a good day out and we probably doubled the business for Molly B’s on Saturday night!!
