Cruising
Sundays: The third race on Sunday starting directly after the second race. This will mean the lake is clear mid to late afternoon for Cruising. So why not come down for a late lunch then take your boat out.
Boats and Boards may cruise at all times on the main lake except when an Open Meeting is taking Place.
The only condition is that cruiser's give way to racing craft and keep away from the start/finishing line and rounding marks. i.e. marks of the course. In other words do not interfer with the racing.
Boats or Boards that have not entered during an OPEN MEETING TAKING PLACE may NOT use the main lake during racing except with express permission of the Race Officer of the Day.
