Tue March 25th SUP RACE

East of Maui had our first race of the 2010 Naish SUP Championship Summer Series this past Tuesday.
We had nine people register , and we were treated to light winds and for the most part calm seas. The was a little bit of boat traffic left over from the Blue Angel Air Show earlier in the afternoon, but for the most part conditions were great.

We started the race off of a small public park in the Eastport section of Annapolis called Horn Point.The course took to us around the Horn Point Shoal marker and then around the Annapolis Harbor waterfront, back to a buoy near the starting area, back to the shoal post and then back to the beach for a total distance of 2.3 Miles. Our winner finished in about 35 minutes, most of us in about 45 minutes and we had everyone off the water in under an hour. Next week depending on the weather, we will probably and another leg to increase the distance to closer to 3 miles.


Afterward most of headed over to the Boat Yard Bar and Grill for food and drinks. Good time had by all.
Aloha,

Mark B
