Paddles and Pints – Expedition Kayak Racing!!

Bob Waters, the Class 1 Record Holder, will give a presentation on the 300-mile Everglades Challenge – the adventures, scares, and beauty of being on your own in the middle of nowhere. If you were on the loxahatche trip you got a taste of this. Imagine doing it on your own!

Bob started racing at the age of 8, including dinghies, crew, sailboats, ocean shells, and surfskis. He and his wife have paddled and camped across the country. He became involved in expedition racing with Watertribe.org and won the Class 1 record in 2018. He is the owner of MidFlorida Paddlesports where he sells, repairs, and gives demonstrations and instruction on kayaking.
