The tides and wind were pretty strong on Sunday which led to some really good times. I haven't seen sub-1:50 times from a dragonboat in previous Alcans.

For us, it was a pretty good weekend:

- We were in the re-race (5 races for the price of 4)
- We had a "blade fight" with Without Warning in the re-race
- We raced in the "barney" Gem (Boat 6)
- We snuck into Comp by the skin of our teeth on Sunday, only to get rocked in the final (but, it was one heck of a race though)
- We got smashed in the beer garden afterwards (always a tradition at Alcan)
