Mahalo for the footage of Jr., in a sea of skis. Just wondering if any rudderless V1's also raced?

There were actually around 50 oc1 but longways behind Jnr so little time to film back that far, no V1.
Next video ATIR Race, all oc6, some big seas on the exposed side of Hong Kong Island. Team Hawaii won this race 2006, 2007 and 2008.

Article with results of the race.
Besides Karel Jr.(28th/1st OC1M), there were a few other paddlers from Hawaii (or race here in Hawaii). Andy Cummings (53rd/2nd OC1-M), Anna Mathisen (64th/1st OC1-F) on Pueo's. Both have done previous Dragon Run races on Hurricanes.
