The Race for the Trophy

Last year’s Corporate Team Champs Kubuli were eager to win another trophy, but the competition was fierce and they could not hang on in the home stretch, coming in second in the Final Round to the newly crowned champs for 2007: Team Cable & Wireless.

And the Winners are…

Kubuli Carib Canoe Race at Soufriere - Sunday, July 16, 2006

This year’s Kubuli Carib Canoe Race was a great success, 20 teams battled for supremacy and the right to claim the trophy for 2006. This years winner, the first team to ever “threepeat” was Dominica Brewery, despite a strong challenge from second place “Team NDC” and third place finishers “Domlec”. Winning teams claimed cases of Kubuli from United Distributors Ltd, cell phones from Cable and Wireless, drums of fuel from National Petroleum, Soca Rum from Belfast Estates and other great prizes.

The crowd that cheered them on was one of the biggest ever and with good music, fresh fish and Kubuli flowing the vibes were excellent.

This brings to an end a hugely successful Cable and Wireless Dive Fest 2006, organized and presented by The Dominica Watersports Association. Until next year.
