While having to update race results after the event is never the optimal outcome, we felt that this was necessary and the fairest outcome for all the teams involved, given the clarity of the data available.

Again we’d like to thank all the teams who competed and really look forward to seeing you at SDBA-Austcham 10km challenge 2025!

Best regards,

SDBA & Austcham

Dear DB Community,

Updates on 10km Mixed race results

Austcham and SDBA would like to thank all the teams who competed in the 5km and 10km races over the weekend. It’s clear that the competitiveness is continuing to increase, and timings have been coming down every year. Amazing races, team spirit and competition especially with the wave starts being brought back!

There were some challenges with the 10km timings, in particular a racing incident involving 2 boats that has materially affected the final results, and was not factored in on the day itself. The incident was captured clearly on a video and after being reviewed by multiple parties, SDBA has made the necessary adjustments based on the race rules.
