Race:
The race start time is 8:30AM on Sunday, June 19, 2021. The total distance for the race is about 45 miles.
At 8:30AM, boats may start the race by rounding to the west the southernmost danger buoy in front of the Lake George Club. Boats finish the race by rounding to the east the same southernmost danger buoy in front of the Lake George Club.
A government buoy at the north end of the lake is used as a turning mark. The mark is the lighted obstruction buoy off of Hawkeye (Windmill) Point, northeast of Rogers Rock at the southern end of Hearts Bay. See: https://lgpc.ny.gov/system/files/documents/2018/07/lkg-1_0.pdf
