There was a record 200 paddlers compete with lots of onlookers cheering on their teams during the exciting racing.
The race courses had to be changed because of the weather and were held between Ulladulla and Narrawallee - still a challenging long course.
A highlight was seeing Mollymook’s mixed crew come second in their division and fourth place overall, a gallant effort considering they had a bad start.
A very strong southerly hit just before the start of the short course, so they had to change the course to inside the inner harbour.
This proved to be a very exciting and close race with crews tumbling into each other, causing one crew to flip their boat, to the excitement of the crowd watching and cheering – a great end to an awesome day and weekend.
“The club thanks all that competed and to the wonderful members of Mollymook Outriggers who all had their job to do that, came together on the day proving another fantastic regatta,” Mollymook Outriggers president Tracey Rutter said.
All official results from the weekend can be found on the AOCRA website.
