June 30th marked the 1st Castaway Island Paddle Board Race at Anchor Bay Marina on Lake Martin, AL. The race was part-sponsored by BOTE Dealer Lake Martin Dock Company.
A number of BOTE’s made the trip up to race the 1 mile rec race, 3 mile elite race, and 1/2 mile sprint race.

Thanks so much to Magda, Corey, Ross, and everyone at Bote, as well as the gang from Paddle Destin who came up to Lake Martin. We can’t imagine the event without you all. You gave our little event a decided air of gravitas! Your paddle clinic was great, too, and you guys and the Paddle Destin crowd were a lot of fun. We are looking forward to next year!
