Blue Velox K1 club boat. Was on Warren Southwell's wash (along with 6 others) for the first 6-7 km, almost at Guildford rd bridge.. then fell in when my paddle slipped & rotated in my hand and I was in wash.
Doug was right behind me. Took a few minutes to empty and get back in, but then chased down 1 person after the next, wash rode them for a minute, then powered past, felt good. Overtook Doug in the last 500m.
