Water Tribe

The details are minimal. Seems the event must be "Un-Official". They used "Spot" transmitters to track progress.

The check points are refered to as "filters" in some cases. This limits the types of boats because they are forced to go under bridges and portage around at least one point. I'd be interested to see how the Tornado or other cats got around these.

We had a few Hobie Kayaks in the event. One of the cheif engineers sailed / pedaled a tandem Mirage Island prototype. looks like the single Adventure Island won its class.

There is one track in the mapping that shows a boat heading out to sea and then stops reporting positions. Maybe Randy? He is said to have capsized and had to be picked up by the Coasties.

Look at "Challenge Mapper" for the Spot Tracking info.
