OC6 races took place on Saturday in strong (up to 30 mph) Easterly winds. The East wind blew against the current of the river kicking up 5-6 foot waves. OC1/2/surfski races took place on Sunday in 20 mph Westerly winds going with the river’s current. All races consisted of two laps with legs both upwind and down. Upwind legs were long and rough, with the downwind legs being fast and hot.

The NOCC proved to be a growing event. With 45 OC1 canoes it can be called today as the biggest OC1 race in Europe. Participants this year came from Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, England, Spain, Zweden, Italy, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium. Nothing else but happy faces since paddle conditions were great, camping next to Surfers Paradise was allowed and all races were full of sensation... Martin Buday (Germany) won the Tsunami OC1 by finishing first overall, Raye Helen Powell (New Zealand) won the woman's overall titel (and Tsunami OC1).
