Chattajack 2016 was the biggest yet with approximately 500 racers from all over the USA, Hawaii, Canada, the Caribbean, all the way to New Zealand. The race travels 31 miles through the scenic Tennessee River Gorge.
This year, brutal headwinds challenged racers for most of the race. The fastest time was done on a surfski (4hours & 4 minutes) and the race cut off is 8 hours 30 minutes.
Olympian Larry Cain, of Canada, won the SUP division for the third year straight.
