Can all teams please make contact with race organisers to provide contact details for communication of the race course please. We are limiting the entries to 20 teams so if you haven’t registered it is first in first serve. Conditions have been changing each day so it is still uncertain what course we will be racing. If you can please send signed waivers in and make payments online to save time in the morning.
