James (Bhutty) Moore-morial race
Hope everyone has put in some kms since sprint nationals and are ready for some long distance racing for the rest of summer. We've had some great conditions here in the Bay and its looking great this weekend. Easterly winds and 2m swell is in the forcast which is good for a race start from Maketu.
