How Long is the Race Course?

The 2.36 mile (3,800m) course will race downstream, finishing approximately 250 meters before the Sedgeley Lighthouse, the beginning of Boathouse Row.  The finish line will be marked by a tent located on the Kelly Drive side of the river and two large pyramidic buoys on the river itself.  There will be buoys marking both the starting chute and starting line. Rowers will pass under 4 bridges while racing along the Schuylkill River; pyramidic buoys will mark both sides of the arch rowers should utilize coming down the course.
