The day was warming by the noon-time mass start; and sunlight flashing off of 45 furiously churning paddle blades signaled that it had become a gorgeous day. The beautiful weather came with an equally perfect water level as the river crested at 1330 c.f.s. during the race. <br \/><!-- wp:image {\"id\":20726} --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"371\" class=\"wp-image-20726\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4465-1024x371.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4465-1024x371.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4465-300x109.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4465-768x279.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><!-- \/wp:image -->Everyone paddled a solid race and there was no awarding of the traditional \u201ccarnage panty\u201d this year. It was a tight battle for the lead among the top three paddlers. Bobby Miller, from D.C., and Richmond\u2019s Isaac Hull exchanged the lead multiple times throughout the race and the outcome was uncertain even as the dueling duo powered through the infamous \u201cCorner\u201d rapid. Ultimately Isaac Hull took the Overall and Wildwater Class win, with Bobby taking second. Maryland&#8217;s Geoff Calhoun was next, securing the Long Boat class win. Renee Powers took the women&#8217;s class victory, Phil Prince cinched Canoe class, and David Verde ruled the Rubber realm.<br \/><!-- wp:image {\"id\":20727} -->\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20727\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4484-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"270\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4484-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4484-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20728\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4499cpy-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"270\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4499cpy-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pyranha.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_4499cpy-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px\" \/><br \/>It was a primo day on the Maury River and now the spring season can commence.
