All Set For 2014

Hi Paddlers,

We are gearing up again and getting ready to hold the Alcoa Mandurah Duel in January 2014.

The 2014 event will be held over 2 days with the Alcoa Mandurah Duel event on Saturday and a Double Ski and OC1 race on Sunday with a SUP Tech Race in the morning. See the Program page for full details.

The biggest change to the 2014 event will be changes to the start and finish of the race.

For 2014 there will be a new start and finish for the Ocean and Estuary courses.

New Starts: Both the Ocean and Estuary starts will now be side by side right beneath the Dawesville Bridge. The start line will be between the jetty at the base of the restaurant on the northern side of The Cut at the base of the bridge in a straight line across The Cut to the base of the bridge on the southern side. Ocean Course paddlers will start to the south of a buoy making the centre of the line, Estuary Course paddlers will start to the north of the buoy marking the centre of the start line.

The starter will be on the jetty on the northern rock wall.

New Finish: The finish of both races will new be at Doddies Beach in front of the Mandurah Ocean Club Halls Head.


Check the maps of the Course page for details.

Video of the 2013 Alcoa Mandurah Duel Race

Here is the video of Sunday's Alcoa Mandurah Duel race,  not the classic downwind race that Mandurah is famous for, rather it was overcast and flat, but it still produced some fantastic racing with Jasper Mocke winning to defend his tittle in another great duel all the way to the line.

Alcoa Mandurah Duel Trophy


Check out this beauty... our new Alcoa Mandurah Duel Perpetual Trophy, appropriately made from a single sheet of aluminium. Designed by Barts and very cleverly crafted and manufactured by Rookie Paddler. This is the trophy for 1st craft over the line, Ski, OC or SUP. So far the honour has gone to a double ski and an OC1. Who will win it in 2013?
