episode_narrativeHazardous surf caused by the strong northwest swells also caused trouble elsewhere. At 1325 two men were swept over the reef at Ritidian Point. Rescuers pulled them out of the water. Both of the men were not injured. The two men said that they were both swimming inside the reef when the currents swept them over the reef.The rough seas and currents also caused trouble in the Marianas One Man Canoe Series. Paddlers were suppose to go from Tumon to Hagatna, but big waves on the reef in Tumon wiped out one canoe and forced several paddlers to turn back. Race officials decided to call off the race until the seas calmed.
