Team Hardware Dominates the Oar Boat Races at the Upper Clackamas Whitewater Festival

Upper Clackamas Whitewater FestivalThis last weekend was the 26th annual Upper Clackamas Whitewater Festival near Estacada, Oregon. Zach entered the cat boat races with a Madcatr cataraft racing frame and 14′ SOTAR Legend tubes. He also entered the oar boat race with a 14′ SOTAR raft and a River Hardware Creek Frame. Here are the results:

1st Place Cataraft Slalom
1st Place Cataraft Rodeo
1st Place Val’s Volleyball
1st Place Oar Boat Slalom

Paddle boat raceWe also entered the paddle boat races. Thanks to Sawyer for letting us use super light bentshaft paddles and to SOTAR for rafts. This was our first time competing in paddle boat races and our hats are off to the Oregon Rafting Team for their solid victories. Their training and determination paid off all weekend. We were able to place in one event:

3rd Place R-4 Downriver Race

Thanks to the NWRA and the festival organizers for a great weekend!
