The 13th Annual Businessmen's Regatta Results

During the regatta. the crowd of paddlers and supporters had the chance to appreciate a great day of racing and events. And if the action in the water wasn't enough, the spectators were also treated to an array of creative and unique team costumes - always a crowd favorite! The after-regatta party was equally as wonderful and gave the paddlers a chance to relax and unwind while enjoying each other's company and also the delicious food and drink served afterwards. Special thanks go out to this year's race sponsors: Huggo's and Steinlager for their fantastic support and post-regatta party goodies. And of course a big mahalo goes out to all the businesses and paddlers who participated in the regatta - it was great day had by all!
