Weather Contingency For Boats On Water

In the event weather conditions require crews to leave the water and return to the docks, the following directions are to be followed: 
 
Referees and river marshals will sound a warning horn and instruct all crews to leave the water and return to the docks. 
 
Crews between the launch area (three angels) and Columbia Bridge must return to the launch area docks. 
 
Crews between the Columbia Bridge and Strawberry Mansion Bridge must return to the Saint Joseph boathouse docks. 
 
Crews between the Strawberry Mansion bridge and start line / marshal area must return to the Canoe Club docks. 
 
Any change from this procedure (to improve safety) will be given by the referee or marshal. 
 
Racing will resume one hour later unless other instructions are given by the chief referee. 
 
All crews must remain or have a crew member remain at the location they have returned to. Additional weather information and race time resumption will be announced at those docks.
