Title: Harrison Regatta Post by: paddlecwazy on July 08, 2008, 02:56:57 PM Does anyone have information as to what the racing format will be this year?
The only details on the official website is the following: Distance & Course Description: 500m and a few surprise races (Stay Tunned!!) How many races are we guaranteed? Kinda crazy that we've all paid our money (my team included) and we don't really know what we're paying for. Not that I have doubts that that Waters Edge would not put on a great regatta, but knowing the racing format would be a great help as we try to work out how many races we can guarantee to our paddlers as we will have the luxury of having some spares at this regatta. If there are going to be less than 3 races per team (excluding novelty races), it is likely that some members of my team who will be spared a race, may decide not to waste the gas driving out for the day to have only 2 meaningful races. Title: Re: Harrison Regatta Post by: NFW on July 08, 2008, 05:41:49 PM I was informed by a pretty reliable source that there will be 4 races.
The first heat will be a 200m course. Times from both 1st and 2nd heat will be added to determine placement in the semis. As for the novelty races, its anyone's guess. Having obstacle courses and 1000m Guts and Glory like Whistler would be interesting.

1st race 200 m 2nd race 500 m 3rd race 500 m 4th race 500 m Cheers. The Water's Edge Team Title: Re: Harrison Regatta Post by: paddlecwazy on July 10, 2008, 03:13:41 PM Thanks for the update.... can't wait for the regatta... just hoping now that the weather will be cooperative.

1st - Sudden Impact Black - clearly the class of the regatta 2nd to 6th - a dog fight between RGL United, Eye of the Dragon, Blu By U, Dragon Hearts Magnum & Superslim Phat Phish Racing. Which ever of these 5 times parties the least on Friday night is my pick for 2nd overall. Title: Re: Harrison Regatta Post by: threesea on July 17, 2008, 12:27:03 PM Based on lasts year's format of four to a race...
Sudden Impact Black Super Slim Phat Phish Racing RGL United Eye, Dragon Hearts Magnum, Blu By U...the dog fight for fourth. Title: Re: Harrison Regatta Post by: NFW on July 18, 2008, 01:41:42 AM Whatever the outcome, Good luck to all!
