    Yes, we did. Paddling is one of the few sports that you can compete in kilt and yes, we all wore shorts underneath. Poly viscoe is great material as well because it dry quickly and is washable. I wouldn't wear an acrylic kilt because it is just going to retain the water.

    I used to work for a multi-national company, first in London, and later in New York. I remember the first year I worked for them, we got an eMail saying the Hong Kong office would be closed for Dragon Boat Race Day, and I thought, "what a cool-sounding holiday! Why don't we have better names for our holidays?!"

    Congrats on the win, and thanks for the boat pictures! Next year, take your team pic in / with the boat!
