The calls are already starting to come in and interest in the inaugural Cannonsville Adventure Triathlon (the CAT Race) is building. Some folks have their sneakers and can run a decent 10k. They have their road bike and 12 miles is within their ability to ride at a decent clip. They can paddle the four miles, but they don't have a canoe or kayak as they usually rent (or they have a canvas bottom boat and don't want to put it through the steam cleaning process). They're not planning on winning so they don't need a super fast boat. Sooooooooo.... what do they do?
Why rent one of course! Here are a list of outfitters in the area, listed in order of closest proximity to Hancock:
Border Water Outfitters, 140 East Front Street Hancock 607-637-4296
Catskill Outfitters 7 North Street Walton 607-865-8827
Al's Sport Store, 6964 River Road Downsville 607-363-7740
Tall Pines Campgrounds, 2715 County Route 35 Bainbridge 607-563-8271
Area rentals may run out fast so make sure to reserve so you get the type of boat you want in the area you want. Also confirm if they will provide racks or padding for your car so you can transport the boat yourself.
Cancellation for 2011 of the Cannonsville Adventure Triathlon - the CAT Race. Stay in touch with our blog to be the first to hear about how we rework it for 2012. Thanks for your support - and please get out and paddle on the Cannonsville Reservoir this summer. Waters open Memorial weekend through Columbus weekend, dawn till dusk.
