More from their site..

We are offering two race routes. A long 19 km course and a 10 km course. We will head out into Burrard inlet in the hope that there will be some afternoon inflow winds.

This rugged west coast fjord is a great venue for this epic small boat race. Racers from South West Canada and Northwestern USA congregate for a friendly and fierce competition. Open to Kayak, Surf Skis, Outrigger Canoes and Dug-out Canoes, it’s a great event. Categories for Men/Women, Sea Kayaks, Fast Sea Kayaks / Surf Skis / Double Kayaks, Co-ed Doubles.

New for 2010 a Stand Up Paddle boarders can compete in the 10 KM course.

We have moved the start back so our friends from the south and Vancouver Island don’t have to wake up too early.
