The primary rule of the race series is that racers conduct themselves with safety as the
priority throughout the race, which includes following all rules of the river, being aware
that the race is taking place on shared waterways and that right of way is to always be
yielded to other vessels in these waterways.
• All races will start at Harbourfront Canoe & Kayak Centre.
• 6:30 and 7:00 race start times are approximations. Each race will start around the
time when the ferry leaves the island. This is to ensure that racers are not racing
to beat the ferry.
• At the finish line of each race, two race staff will record racer/kayak numbers as
the kayaks touch ground. Standings and points for each division will be
calculated post event and displayed on a race results web page.
• Following races that do not end at Harbourfront, racers will be responsible for
paddling back to Harbourfront. This offers them the opportunity to cool down
and enjoy some social chatting following the race.
