wasn't there a massive ****-up with the start??

 

[CULWULLA]

yes because of the swell, the ski was a deep water start, which ment you had 15mins to get out to start can. dean mercer who ened up coming 4th, was still stretching when the gun went off.he was 10mins behind.

Well done! I could probably do the run, but the open sea stuff - no way!

Slightly off topic, but is the Bermagui Bronze still an annual event?

GO OUT THERE AND GET 3RD LIKE A REAL AUSTRALIAN!

There has been some controversy over whether to allow people under 20 to compete. If they feel they can do it, let them do it. Age is no barrier.
