The time keeper set off together with the sea kayaks of Karena and newcomer Kate, leaving Dominic and Tilman to idle at the start for another 10 minutes before shooting off. Some truly amazing times for the first dice after the festive season. Tilman smashed the course record, but said he is unsure if he will ever be able to beat this time. Dominic, showing excellent style, is sure to be a contender on handicap at the next dice. Kate had a go at paddling one of the TK1&#8217;s after the dice, looked comfortable, and may be the outside horse if she puts in the training to be confident in the TK. Karena, without any off season training, brought the sea kayak home in a more than respectable time, showing just how naturally strong she is as a paddler. The stage has been set for Wed. 4 March at 5:30PM with five paddlers carrying timed handicaps into the dice and we expect it to be a cracker. We encourage all paddlers to join the handicap dices, irrespective of your form or skill. Once you have a handicap it&#8217;s a level playing field for the bottle of wine prize on offer.<\/div>\n<table width=\"100%\" align=\"center\">\n<caption><em>Race 1 Results Wed 18 Feb 09<br \/>\nTiming: Ernst<\/em><\/caption>\n<\/table>\n<p><b>Name<\/b><b>boat<\/b><b>Start Time<\/b><b>Race Time<\/b><b>Place<\/b><b>Actual time<\/b><b>New Handicap time<\/b><\/p>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Tilman PlassTK1 (F.A)+10:0022:55112:5510:05Dominic FuK1+10:0024:21214:218:39Ernst le RouxTK1 Blue015:53315:537:07Karena PryceSea kayak020:10420:102:50Kate WilmottSea kayak023:00523:000<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"2\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"gbox\"><b>Wed 4 March<\/b><\/div>\n<table width=\"100%\" align=\"center\">\n<caption><em>Race 2 Results Wed 4 March 09<br \/>\nTiming: Ernst<\/em><\/caption>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Name<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Place<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Actual time<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>New Handicap time<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dominic Fu<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>14:14<\/td>\n<td>8:55<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>David Balyaki<\/td>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>19:18<\/td>\n<td>2:32<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Kate Wilmott<\/td>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>19:22<\/td>\n<td>2:26<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Joel<\/td>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>19:25<\/td>\n<td>2:26<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Michael Wynne<\/td>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>20:00<\/td>\n<td>1:50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Karena Pryce<\/td>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>21:00<\/td>\n<td>0:50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Larissa Hansen<\/td>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>21:50<\/td>\n<td>0:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<div id=\"3\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"gbox\"><b>Wed 18 March 09<\/b><\/div>\n<table width=\"100%\" align=\"center\">\n<caption><em>Race 3 Results Wed 18 March 09<br \/>\nTiming: Ernst<\/em><\/caption>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Name<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Time (handicap)<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Handicap place<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Actual time<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>New Handicap time<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tilman Plass<\/td>\n<td>21:44 (8:55)<\/td>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>12:49<\/td>\n<td>9:06<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dominic Fu<\/td>\n<td>22:08 (7:36)<\/td>\n<td>11<\/td>\n<td>14:32<\/td>\n<td>7:23<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Paul Bates<\/td>\n<td>&#8211; (-)<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>14:58<\/td>\n<td>6:57<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ernst le Roux<\/td>\n<td>22:02 (5:57)<\/td>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<td>16:05<\/td>\n<td>5:50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tamsin Barnes<\/td>\n<td>20:15 (3:00*)<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>17:15<\/td>\n<td>4:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Martin Wynne<\/td>\n<td>20:48 (3:00*)<\/td>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>17:48<\/td>\n<td>4:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>David Balyaki<\/td>\n<td>20:57 (2:32)<\/td>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>18:25<\/td>\n<td>3:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Kent<\/td>\n<td>&#8211; (-)<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>19:19<\/td>\n<td>2:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Michael Wynne<\/td>\n<td>21:12 (1:50)<\/td>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>19:22<\/td>\n<td>2:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Angela Boag<\/td>\n<td>&#8211; (-)<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>19:59<\/td>\n<td>2:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Karena Pryce<\/td>\n<td>21:55 (0:50)<\/td>\n<td>8=<\/td>\n<td>21:05<\/td>\n<td>1:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Markus<\/td>\n<td>&#8211; (-)<\/td>\n<td>&#8211;<\/td>\n<td>21:32<\/td>\n<td>0:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Milena Gongora<\/td>\n<td>21:43 (0:00)<\/td>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>21:43<\/td>\n<td>0:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Larissa Hansen<\/td>\n<td>21:50 (0:00)<\/td>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>21:50<\/td>\n<td>0:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Amanda<\/td>\n<td>21:55 (0:00)<\/td>\n<td>8=<\/td>\n<td>21:55<\/td>\n<td>0:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<div align=\"right\"><span style=\"color: #999999;\">LM: Apr 09<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Current series | Summer 2009 | Spring 07 | Summer 07 Anyone can come along to these races, provided they are able to paddle 3 km.
