Two courses will be offered:
Course 1: Commodore's Cup. Standard "around the buoys" course, the overall champion of this course will win the "Commodore's Cup". Any boat is encouraged to race this course and will be assigned to the appropriate fleet.
Course 2: "Cruiser" course. This will be a longer around the buoys course using the same starting line and leeward gate of the around the buoys course, but the first mark will be a tetrahedron set up the lake to create a race that should take over an hour to complete. Racers choosing the "Cruising" class on registration and who race the cruiser course will not be in competition to win the Commodore's Cup, but will receive skipper and crew trophies based on the number of entries in that fleet. There will only be one cruiser race each day (Saturday and Sunday)
