Let's see a great turnout for the Ebb Tide Race. If you show up it will be a great race.

The Ebb Tide Marathon on the Penobscot River is this Saturday, September 26 at 11 am. The start of the race is at the Brewer boat launch area just South of the Joshua Chamberlain Bridge (across from the Bangor waterfront area). The race is an 11 mile flatwater race that ends in Orrington. Registration starts 9:30 am and is $10 per paddler. Race organizer John Carter is looking for someone who would be willing to serve as the sweep boat as he has a bad shoulder and will not be able to paddle the entire course. If you are willing to help with the sweep boat or have any other questions about the race contact: John Carter 667-2634 audreycarter314@gmail.com or Dan Baumert at 884-8052 or 249-9238. Weather forecast looks fair and seasonably cool with a tailwind and outgoing tide so it should be a fast course!
Just a reminder that this race is part of the flatwater series has the series has been expanded through the last race on the schedule (Muskrat Scramble Oct. 24th). Hope to see you on yet another race on the mighty Penobscot.
