Stanley Short Course 2019

( 23-Jun-2019)

Sunday saw the Sea Cucumbers return to Stanley Beach for the Short Course, the final race in the Stanley Sunlife Dragon Boat Points series.

The team was rearing to go after taking an unexpected rest last weekend (compliments of the last minute event cancellation by organisers). We were racing two teams this weekend – a mixed standard boat and a mixed small boat. First up was the standard boat. Maja made her debut at drums, and the cukes exploded off the start line taking an early lead and maintaining it for duration of the 200m course. Our comfortable heat win securing our spot in the semi-finals.

Our next race was a lot tighter with our team securing third spot and a ticket to the Silver Cup final. Cue one of the most exciting race finishes of the season, mere 2.37 seconds separating the entire race. Sea Cukes & Loreley Thunder were stroke for stroke the entire course. Who would win it? We crossed the line and neither team knew. when the times finally came through its was Lorely for the win by a mere 0.13 seconds. Sea cukes a triumphant first runner up to our next door neighbours for the day. Congrats Lorely it was a great race!

On to the mixed small boat and the sneaky but cheeky, race within a race. Unbeknownst to us, our fearless captains pit team mate against teammate, reavealing at the end of the day that team 1 was infact racing team 2 with a prize given to the team that posted the fastest time of the day. So huge shout out to Team 2 for taking time honours on the day and their prize of first round of drinks. Team one should of course be acknowledged for qualifying us for the GOLD CUP FINALS of the day and Team 2 posted a time 1 second faster securing us 3rd runner up.

Thank you to Stanley Dragon Boat Association and of course our sponsors forr yet another great day on the water with this team that never fails to entertain. The cat is spent! Enjoy the summer & come back fully charged for the second half of the race season!
