Guadeloupe race -  St François Kayak Challenge

The St. Maarten race ties in well with the St François Kayak Challenge in Guadeloupe the following weekend.  Both races are expected to have mostly downwind conditions and together make a stunning pair of paddling weekends.  Warm water, reliable trade winds, inter-island channel crossings, sounds awesome. 

The St François Kayak Challenge has €5000 in prize money with €2000 going to the winner of the race.
