The Havasu Heat Race is one of the classic desert lake races featuring OC-1's, OC-2's, OC6's, Surfski, Traditional Paddleboard, Standup Paddleboard, V1 and Kayak.  

PFD's and leashes are highly encouraged. 

Important Notes on the event:

- You are highly encouraged to register and pay prior to Race Day (Saturday, April 6), making your time at the Check-in line quick and painless. All you'll need to do is fill out a paper insurance waiver (insurance company's fault!) and get your number.

It will help eliminate delays on race morning as well as cut down on paddler error while registering with our online format. Non-preregistered racers will increase to $50.00 day of race.  

- PFD’s are encouraged on all paddle craft with the exception of Prone paddleboard.  Leashes are suggested for use on the long course for OC-1’s, OC2's, SUP's and Surfski’s

No Dogs, Alcohol or Glass are allowed in Rotary Park…Rangers will issue hefty fines!

No refunds!
