Rowing in Augusta is a year round sport with 2 main racing
seasons, Summer and Fall. Summer Masters races are
typically 1000m (1 kilometer) head-to-head, which allows for
athletes to participate in multiple races within a regatta.
Fall racing is longer, averaging about 5 kilometers. These
races are called "HEAD" races, and crews race against the clock.
