2021 Festival Results
What a beautiful day for dragon boat racing! We couldn’t have asked for any better weather.
We weren’t quite sure what the race times would be for our 10-person teams, but with a little push from a south wind, they were pretty close to our 2019 results. Half of the teams in the finals posted race times of less than one minute–a blisteringly fast pace for 10 people.
Congratulations to all our paddlers for a job well done!
