About The Race:
Every year ISK helps to host the Martha's Vineyard Oar and Paddle Regatta from our beach location in Sengekontacket pond. Swimmers and paddlers of all kind come together to race 2.4 miles and raise money for cleaner waters!  The proceeds from the race go to Friends of Sengekontacket, who works to keep the water that we race in every year protected.

How It Works:
This year every racer will race together in one group, and will be competing against others in their category! The race will take place at 10:00am on race day. The winners from each category will be announced after all the races are completed.

Safety:
There will be safety kayakers at different points across the paddle route during the race. The race takes place in relatively calm and shallow waters. PFD's must be worn during the race.

What can I paddle?
Racers are welcome to paddle anything that floats. We usually have kayaks, paddle boards, swimmers, canoes, row boats, and the occasional bath tub! Everyone will race in different categories depending on your racing equipment.
