Thanks for the link.  Very funny stuff. 

 From the report:

"Some twit (in a surfski) can't steer his boat at the start and almost 
takes me out. I hit him with my paddle and he disappears too. Posing 
time was over and the blondes were looking for new friends."
.....

"The first boat to go over is a Surfski driven by a blonde. I try to 
surf into her but I miss. At least it would have cheered me up."
......

"Will I take part again. Yes. Many thanks to the Surfski Fraternity for 
having us. The guys have got something. Regretfully I think it could be 
infectious."


That's what I would be afraid of.  Another costly habit.

Kirk, is your designer car color-coded with the "ski"?
