RE: [Paddlewise] Paddlewise

Paddlewise has been my best source of paddling info... Good to see it back online.  
Now that Sea Kayaker Magazine is gone and a few other blogs/websites have gone silent... not sure where everyone is going to chatter, gossip and trade info.

Now see…. I didn’t know anything about it!  :)  Thanks for posting this, Dave!  Is there a link to a map (like a SPOT map where racing teams are identified)?

My fave, Team Soggy Beavers, is a six place outrigger canoe, outclassed by the multihull sailboats, but the lead paddlecraft.  Race ends in Ketchikan.  Front end of the mob is near Seymour Narrows.  Field winnowed from ca. 50 down to about 30, with most of the attrition crossing the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
