Wow - what a gorgeous day and what excellent water conditions for a race!

Even though I had both a wardrobe and a mechanical malfunction, and
the camera was overheating in its waterproof bag (making some Blake
Island photos a lot more washed out and blue than they should have
been), I still had a good time.

My GPS indicated a distance of almost exactly 10 miles for the course.
