The Crossing For A Cure is a long-distance endurance paddle challenge and international championship race that takes paddlers 80 miles across the Gulf Stream, from Bimini in the Bahamas to Lake Worth Beach on the Florida mainland.

Categories include SUP, surf ski, prone boards, OC-1, OC-6, kayak and 2-person dory, for solo competitors and relays.

The event was inspired by the incredible health benefits that a salt water environment can provide for those living with cystic fibrosis, a terminal lung disease. Event Organizer Travis Suit’s daughter Piper was diagnosed with CF when she was four years old.

Join the crew of “Piper’s Angels” – as a competitive or recreational paddler or rower, a sponsor, a “virtual paddler” or a volunteer – from launch to landing. We are also seeking support boats and Captains.

Becoming part of the Crossing is an experience not to be missed. Check in today.
