Ce serait vraiment terrible s'il pouvait remporter la course et remettre ça en surfski, dans un mois, lors de l'Epic channel race...

Kai Bartlett remporte la course chez les hommes, et Lauren Bartlett gagne chez les femmes... Tu parles d'un couple de furieux !
La traversée fut une vraie punition pour tout le monde.
Lewis a abandonné après environ 4 heures de course, alors qu'il était dans le paquet de tête. Que s'est-il passé ?
M.A.J mardi 21 avril

Lewis Laughlin was not able to finish the race. I was escorting Lewis and doing my best to help him through a difficult race which he did not have the time to prepare for. Lewis started slowly because he only had a few days to adjust to the OC-1 after training only on the surfski. He was learning the canoe at the same time that he was racing it. By mid channel he had worked his way up from 15th to 3rd place behind Danny Ching and Jimmy Austin. At 3 hours he passed Jimmy and was about 50 meters behind Danny. He could get no closer for the next hour and he began to suffer from shoulder pain and hip pain due to his unfamiliarity with the OC-1. At 4 hours he decided to stop paddling in order to prevent further injury which would hurt his chances in the surfski race next month. He learned a valuable lesson in the race that surfski and canoe are not the same and you have to prepare for each one separately.
