Only 2 more days to go, and racing will kick off at the Glenmore Reservoir.
We were busy today testing out the timing equipment. We have a photo-finish camera the same as we use at Nats in NZ. The course markers have been surveyed and the course will be straightened up tomorrow ready for racing.
A few more of the international teams arrived today, Rapa-Nui, Hawaii, California and Italy to mention a few.
Italy had some cool paddling gear for sale. (Don't worry Becs, I got you something from there too)
