Lili‘uokalani is a world qualifier
The Queen Lili‘uokalani Long Distance Canoe races in September will serve as a qualifier for the 2019 International Va’a Federation World Distance championships.
Hawaii crews will be vying in several Queen’s Race IVF sanctioned qualifying race divisions including the signature 18-mile race, V1 (one-person canoe) and the Kupuna Classic (6-person canoe) for the 70-plus age group.
The IVF world distance championships will be held in Australia from Aug. 9-17, 2019.
“This is an exciting moment for outrigger canoe racing in Hawaii,” said Kai Opua Canoe Club president Uncle Bo Campos. “The iconic Queen’s Race is now the only Hawaii qualifier for the IVF World Distance Championships.”
Hawaii Canoe Racing Association paddlers and crews are encouraged to register online for the upcoming 2018 Queen Lili‘uokalani Long Distance Canoe at www.qlcanoerace.com
The annual event will welcome paddlers from around the world for five days of racing on the Labor Day weekend (Aug. 30-Sept. 3). The signature 18-mile long distance race is slated for Sept. 1.
The biennial IVF Va’a World Sprints will return to Hilo Bay in 2020.
