Lewes Dragon Boat Festival
September 17, 2017 @ 12:00 pm
A dragon boat is a 46 foot boat much like a canoe. Twenty paddlers sit side by side on ten seats and paddle in synch. The race is approximately 500 meters long, will start north of the Overfalls Lightship and end at the Canalfront Park in Lewes. The two boat heats will take about 2-3 minutes to travel the 500 meter distance. Every team is scheduled to race at least two times, more if they are winning.
