Feeling crazy and over-confident? Got nothing going on next summer? Why not race from Port Townsend, Washington to Ketchikan, Alaska? 750 miles of unsupported, non-motorized boating sounds like just the thing, right?
If so, then the “R2AK” or Race to Alaska is for you. It starts June 4th, 2015 and ends who knows when. Better start training.
R2AK – Race to Alaska – Are You Ready?
Craft selection will be a big factor… there are no restrictions on craft except that it may not have a motor. Plenty of banter and speculation over here.

Super cool, is it going to be filmed?
Dustin Urban says:
Good question… let’s hope so! Perhaps someone connected with the event can fill us in here?

Saw the ad for the race in the WBF Magazine. Gotta love the imagery of 100 C notes nailed to the tree. They know how to market.
Dustin Urban says:
They sure do, great imagery. Such a simple concept, such an epic undertaking!
