Hi All,

Advance registration online is easy and greatly appreciated.  I mean, if you were having a party and no one RSVP'd, how many hula hoops would you buy?  Help a fella out.

Bring your more stable boat if the forecast calls for much wind, especially out of the south.

Date:  October 1, 2017

Register now online (pretty please)

NOTE: Course change for 2017 that eliminates the carry and instead includes 4 miles across the sometimes formidable Seneca Lake

Location: RiverPark Commons 1030 Waterloo-Geneva Road, Waterloo, NY.

Location details:  See the course map on this site.

Classes: Most standard NYMCRA classes . This is also a NYMCRA kayak points race.

Distance: 13 miles (no carry)

Course:   (map)
This is a loop that starts in the Seneca-Cayuga canal, crosses Seneca Lake near the north shore, re-enters the Seneca-Cayuga canal, and ends at the starting point.  

Seneca Lake can be rough here if the wind is out of the south, so prepare appropriately. Life jackets must be readily accessible.

The majority of the course is on the Seneca-Cayuga canal, about 30-50 yards wide, with very little current.
