First, a big mahalo to Budlight (Bae, Steven, and James) for their $1500 in cash prizes for the 2 warm up races. Paddlers had a chance to stand out individually before Saturday's relay race. Mahalo to Jimmy Ledward and Sharky Aguilar for escorting and Tom Bartlett's gang for keeping time.

Perfect surfing conditions and spectacular scenery treated early arrivals to a great run in 15-20 knot trade winds. The course was Kalihiwai Bay to Haena along Kauai’s beautiful north shore.

After a month of monsoon rains, flooding, and bacteria laced muddy run-off, the paddlers of YMCA Kauai Hoe Wa’a were happy to toss raincoats aside to participate in the 7th race of our season on Sunday, April 9. Both short and long course divisions started at Kalapaki and headed to Poipu. Finishes were held at Poipu Beach Park and Kukuiula Harbor for the short and long course respectively.
