Shouldn't take more than 4 hours.
I've done it in about 3 hours - but keep in mind the wind is a pretty big factor sometimes.
I've paddled downriver to the point, then been blown back upriver to Millvale.
I've also paddled downriver to the point against the wind, then a storm system started coming and the wind direction switched (so I'm against it both ways) and was paddling upriver at a slower pace than the trail walkers - so I gave up and walked back.

This is a great point. It's always better to paddle Into The Wind in the beginning and then when you get tired you can make it back easily rather than doing things the other way around. That can be a real bad time.
