Pacifica run handicap time trails every 2nd Friday Night out of Mona Vale Basin. Rego is 5pm for a 5.30 start. Always a heap of fun in a Nor'Easter as you get to creep out in the lee of the wind, along the rocks at the Southern End of the Basin and then enjoy a nice long downwind stretch to the South End of the Basin. There is also a little bommie wave in the middle which can make things interesting.
The course usually includes 3 or 4 circuits and should take around 30 minutes.
2 weeks ago we had 5 SUPs in the field with a pretty tight race the whole way around as most were on 12'6s. Hopefully we can double this figure tonight.
From memory, the entry fee was $10 and this included a BBQ and drink after the race. Great way to finish the work week...

Leaving work early so I can be there. Conditions are looking good. I've got a new board and a new paddle to test out against you guys (same old engine though).

Was planning on it - but spaced a work team building thing this afternoon that I can't escape from.

We had a great turnout last night, and everyone had a ball a lot of new faces, Diamond Dave Kissane won the sup race on his Fanatic , I will try and post the full results and photos here later, and on Pacifica ocean paddlers on Facebook.
The next one is in 2 weeks.

Thanks Kev. Just want to give a quick plug to Simon and his Darley Street Depot Cafe for sponsoring the event. I received a breakfast voucher for winning the SUP race. This morning I took the kids down for breaky after an early surf. Awesome feed! I don't think we will be eating till dinner. My recommendation...the breaky burrito washed down with Tobys Estate Coffee. The kid's loved their caramel thick shakes apparantly made with real caramel!!!!

Great Snaps - sorry I missed it, well not really 2 days of kiting up at Hawks was well worth it.
