The race, originally scheduled for August 15 was called off due to unsafe seas, and the expected weather conditions. The rain date in the event the race must be called off again is Sunday, September 5, 2010.
The course of the popular annual race was scheduled to encompass the following areas; Ferry Reach, North Shore, Two Rock Passage, Hamilton Harbour, Granaway Deep, Port Royal Bay, Great Sound, Commissioner’s Point, Fort St. Catherine’s Point and St. David’s.
Any bets that Danielle will see it called off for an unprecedented (I believe) third time ?
