Vancouver Island Dragon Boat Festival is being held on the Gorge.
The Vancouver Island Dragon Boat Festival kicked off on Saturday with about 20 teams and hundreds of participants racing up and down the Gorge.
“When you watch from the shore, you think we’re not going that fast,” he said. “But when you’re on the boat, it’s actually flying through the water.”“You’re waiting for that horn, and when that horn goes, it’s complete sensory overload,” he said. “Water splashing, people screaming.” This year, the Vancouver Island Dragon Boat Festival introduced a pentathlon format, where racers have to compete in a medley of different races to determine the weekend’s overall champions.
“You can usually look at a list of teams and pretty much know [who’s] first, second, third, fourth,” he said.
