Race 2 of Series 2 was held Sunday in exquisite Florida conditions. Entries (30) were slightly down but this was expected as many folks were spending the Thanksgiving weekend away with family, Florida basked in 80 deg weather while snow was falling up North !
The course set provided for some upwind work and downwind work, if one worked hard rides were to be found.
PRESS RELEASE

On Thursday, November 24 the 5th Annual Turkey Shoot brought together 64 paddlers in 42 boats - everything from OC-6’s to OC-1's and OC-2’s to stand up paddle boards and rudderless canoes. Each paddler paid their entry fee in canned goods and over 350 pounds of canned meat and vegetables and other non-perishables were dropped off to fellow paddler and firefighter Kawika Williams at the Kihei Fire Station for distribution to the Maui Food Bank.
After much talk about having an ocean multi sport event, ideas were finally put into action and the verdict is in . . . the event was a HUGE SUCCESS! The day’s events included an ocean triathlon, a 4 man regatta and a canoe surfing contest.
Hawaii's Patrick Dolan and Brandon Woods while at a national team training camp at the Olympic Training Center in San Diego took part in Surf Ski/OC1 race in La Jolla placing 1st and 2nd.

Pre-season HIPA "introductory" race which took place at Keauhou Bay.
Begun in 1998 as a pre-season warmup by the late Abbott Galaher, entry fees have always included canned goods for the Hawaii Island Food Bank.
We had seven Florida entries and one New York entry for the Treasure Island Classic on Sunday the 30th. The highlight of the day was seeing the two woman's crews finish in a near photo finish as everyone cheered them on from the shore. After a neck to neck battle for 11.5 miles the New York ladies finished second ahead of the Florida crew.
