Great race for beginners to experienced.  7.6 miles race course around Lemon/Sand Island. Easy loading area from large parking lot (cost $5 per car) to beach access to water.  Up river, counter clockwise around island, down river with current and around last bouy counter clockwise to finish along beach.  Great watching area for family and friends and easy to find off highway.  Because of time of year weather can make water choppy.
