Narrow River Race


In today's race, we had a shoot out on 10 miles of flat water, Mohican, V12, SES Ultra. It is nice to have a 22lb Ultra especially on flat water. What also helps is the weedless 4 inch rudder. Only a minute separated me, Chris(Mohican), Tim(v12) in that order over the 90 minute race. I added a bullet to all my Stellars that increase the drainage by roughly 30%. Next race is the Rotc where I will be paddling Jet! It is light, ultra stable, and very fast for what it is. 19 miles and 6 portages and never a dull moment. Why a Jet? There is alway a liklihood of boat damage on this course and I can just hop in the Jet and go with spending anytime in it. I don't have to take time from paddling the ski on the ocean.
