Hi Swimmers
I checked out Shallow Inlet this morning and noticed that tides are behaving oddly at the moment, the mouth of the inlet must be tight and restricting flow, so we will need to delay the start of the event by an hourĀ (yay, an extra sleep in I hear some of you say).
I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. The pack collection and late registration desk will still be open at the clubhouse from 8:15am.
I expect there will be quite a few boat/trailers and quite a few cars coming in so please be patient, with the tide going out the car park will keep getting bigger and you will be long gone before it comes in again. There will be limited room at the high tide car park (and a walk), and for those parking on the inlet a reminder that the foreshore parking fee is $5/day, all fees go towards the foreshore committee maintaining the local beaches.
Please note the new, adjusted timetable.
