As I started my paddle this morning -I was reflecting on Dawids incredible defining moment of The pod of killer whales passing by him .I was wearing a pfd for only the second time in preperation for the first race in a new South East Queensland series(pacific ocean series),the fist time I wore the jacket (back in December) was in preperation for a national titles race in which I smashed my boat into ten pieces 3 days before the race and missed it-You never know what youre going to get out there-the beauty of the ocean---This morning I was not smashed by logs in the breaker zone carried out by inland floods-yet ,bombarded with a thick school of Banana Prawns many of which landed in the boat and ended up in the large pocket of my pfd and later on prawn sandwhich's for my wife and I for lunch-Gotta love this sport!
