Buckroe Beach Dash or Splash - east coast race 2 results
Results from the second ECORA one-man series race, Buckroe Beach Dash or Splash in Hampton, VA held on May 13, 2006. The Dash or Splash is an 8K run and a 7 mile OC-1/OC-2 race. They are separate events so you don't have to do both races but we usually have several hardy paddlers who do the 8K run and the canoe race. The race proceeds are donated to Disabled Sports USA Wounded Warrior Program. DS/USA.
East Coast OC-1/OC-2 Season Kickoff: Kumu'ohu 15K Challenge
[Results]
What a way to start off the East Coast Outrigger Racing Association OC-1/2 season!
Gray over hanging clouds and cool showers threatened early and then the sun busted a move to melt away the long winter.
The crew from Washington Canoe Club did it right. They put on a great race and provided some good post-race beer and grinds.
Many Mahalos to Mitch, Amy Potter and the rest of the WCC paddlers, for taking such good care of us.

Hobie Treasure Island Ocean Paddling Series 2 Race 3
by Lex Raas
Sunday 26th February dawned in Treasure Island, Florida with a cold front rolling through. All paddlers were woken at dawn with lightning and thunder preceding the cold front and the squall line.... many paddlers decided that this was a day to stay off the water. However, I had been monitoring Windguru.com and they accurately predicted that the rain would stop by 9am and that the weather would start clearing by start time at 10am. Bulls eye !!
