I can answer part of the question. It wasn't a Starboard Point at the BOP. It was a prototype sub 12-6 board that was very narrow, had a centerboard to add stability but the conditions were too much for it. BTW, I agree we need a point to point board showcase....right Bill?

And I got food no problemo, I just saw the opportunity since people all around me were complaining that they couldn't buy food on the beach. BUT--kudos to your team. the event was great, the vendors were all stoked, the party and party venue was first class. Loved it.

We couldn't get the permits for anyone to sell food. We didn't expect as many to show that did and we ran out of the food we brought for the competitrs. We're very sorry. Now that we know what to expect, next year's battle of the paddle will be even better! Promise you won't go hungry Sorry there weren’t any food vendors.
