ahr:138 max:153
My first outrigger race! The team did great. We actually had two newer paddlers in our boat - one paddling less than 3 weeks and one who'd been in a boat 4 times before. Nevertheless, we did awesome and actually took 3rd in our division, which is the first time in our club's history that a novice team medaled in the first race of the season. People were impressed with my steering, but you've gotta have the motor too, so I'm proud of our team. It turns out that we were only 18 seconds away from first place! We are only going to continue to improve. Exciting!
