Open Boat Festival
September 18-19 was the 2nd annual Open Boat festival. Many Boats showed up and enjoyed the events. There was a rowing race in the morning and a sailing race in the afternoon. The rowing race was over 1 km. The fastest time was 16 minutes and the last in was 20 minutes. That's pretty good for human power. The sailing race was exciting. The winds were gusty at 15-20 knots coming from the shore. The sailors were amazingly skillful, it was a blast to watch. Next year I'm going in the race too. Here are some videos to fill your pallet.
The evening was filled with watching old videos, awards and a BBQ. It's a great weekend to hang out with good friend. I'm already looking forward to next year.
My photos turned out very poor quality so I'm going to ask my friend Chris for copies of his photos. I'll try to create a link to his pictures for you.
Thanks to all the participants vendors supporters.
This year we were sponsored from
All Bay Marine
Waypoint Marine
Brentwood Lodge and Spa
Paynes Marine

Pacifica Paddle sports
and us Abernethy & Gaudin
We could not have pulled off this great day without the support of our faithful crew. Not only do our employees work hard all day but the also put in so many extra hours to make all this happen. I hope they know how much I appreciate them. Dave, Trish, Chris, Erin, Theresa, Myrna and Jean, You guys are the best!!
I would not want to forget My wife Carrie-Anne who built the website and the posters through her company Creative Gravity Graphic design and Commuinication. www.creaitvegravity.com
