WA "The Doctor" Ocean Paddle

Published: December 07, 2022 Last Updated: December 08, 2022

The WA 'The Doctor' Ocean Paddle had just over 500 competitors in it, with a large international field. 

The race was epic. Our paddlers started with a 30-40kph cross tail wind which straightened to a 50-70kph tail wind for the second half of the race.

It made for some very fast conditions and big runs to catch. 

Here are the results: 

  • Nic L came 44th in the open men’s category and 103rd overall
  • Isaac R came 9th in the spec ski category and 249th overall
  • James B came 33rd in the over 40’s and 189th overall

Well done Lads!
