The grey skies may have scared off a few contenders but about 300 men, women, children and dogs turned up on Sunday in some outlandish pink outfits for the annul Paddle in Pink fund-raiser for breast cancer.
Dragon boats, kayaks and stand-up paddle boards were the most popular water craft at the event organised by Boardwalk Boats.
Under the watchful eye of Noosa Coast Guard, the paddlers rounded Noosa Sound after having registered a fee that went entirely to cancer charities.
Boardwalk Boats manager Lachlan Stevens everybody was “pretty happy with the event” and the rain held off for most of it.
