Jack and Tom paddled Saturday in the Long Boat Regatta on Long Lake organized by Brian and Grace McDonnell’s Adirondack Watershed Alliance. The race is the North American War Canoe Championships, but there is also an “anything goes” 10-mile race, and the NCMC used the 18-foot Jensen to win first place in the C-2 standard men category. As they were the only entry in that category, victory was assured. Their time was 2:08, which was fairly good considering that their GPS showed that the race was actually almost 11.5 miles in length.
