The event boats are sold by Hobie Cat Australasia. They sold most to the island here and are taking 20 back to OZ.

No chance of getting one in the US as they surely will sell all from there.

It POURED RAIN last night. Man when it rains here... it is SOLID. The site is very wet and the beach is suffering from erosion done by the run off.

Now I understand why so many vehicles have snorkels. No kidding... snorkels to get through deep water. I have to get a shot of one for you.

Here are some shots from this morning. Boats are off the beach and into race 5 of the qualifying round. We have three days of qualifying then 3 days of semi followed by 2 days of finals.



More shots from this morning are linked from the Hobie forums.
