12km: OS1 – Geoff Collett 71:47 (3 points)
 
A good turn-out on a cold but bright and sunny Sunday morning. Unfortunately the breeze picked up and some paddlers who looked like troubling the recorders with a PB were thwarted. PB’s were recorded by Trent Birkett and Rob Wilson. The 8 km distance was the most popular with only Geoff Collett going for the 12 km. Bob Collins and Scott MacWilliam maintain their battle at the top of the point score table despite Scott taking a dip and Bob being chivalrous by guiding 2 beginners over a distance they had not achieved before.
Thanks to Shane Lund and John Preston for time keeping.
 
Winter has now arrived and all paddlers wishing to have their times recorded in the time trials must be wearing a life vest. It is simple: no life vest, no recorded time.
Please note paddlers are asked not to come between the blue buoy and the beach unless finishing the time trial. Failure to comply will see a 1 minute addition to your time.
Also, the paddling course takes you outside the canoe polo playing field AND outside the larger white buoy marking the course. Failure to comply will see you disqualified.
