Racers / Boat Classes

The NYC DEP has minimum boat length requirements. All kayaks must be at least 9'6" in length and all canoes be at least 11'6" in length.

For race results, boats will be broken down into classes as follows:

K1/C1 = overall boat length under 15 feet
K1/C1 Pro = overall boat length over 15 feet

Team K1/C1 = overall boat length under 15 feet, more than one racer, single paddler
Team K1/C1 Pro = overall boat length over 15 feet, more than one racer, single paddler

Team Tandem K2/C2 = overall boat length under 17 feet, teams using tandem boats, two paddlers
Team Tandem K2/C2 Pro = overall boat length over 17 feet, teams using tandem boats, two paddlers
