2007 Toronto Harbour Outrigger International Challenge
|
This two day event will be held on July 7th and 8th, 2007 challenging an international field of outrigger canoe, kayak, and surfski paddlers in a 23km+ course around Toronto Island, returning to Toronto Sailing and Canoe Club(TSCC).
Our goal is to continue to build this event into one of the most enjoyable events for paddlers with a varied and competitive course through the heart of Toronto's waterfront.
In 2007, the Fairport Aquatic Club and Toronto Sailing and Canoe Club(TSCC) Outrigger Group will again host an international event.
Already the largest outrigger canoe race in eastern Canada, in 2006 the Toronto Harbour International Challenge had over 120 competitors. Over the past two years, the field has included current and former Canadian National paddling team members, crews from all the outrigger clubs in the Greater Toronto area, as well as several crews from the east coast of the United States.
In 2006, we were proud to become part of the East Coast Outrigger Racing Association schedule and our OC-6 races are part of their Point-Series Races.
We welcome all paddlers to participate in the races which include competitive kayaks, surfskis, stand up surfboards, plus single, two-person, and six-person outrigger canoes.
Paddlers must be capable of handling rough water conditions and large wakes.
