The 2021 racing schedule is here.
Weekend races are typically conventional races with all boats starting at the same time with elapsed times adjusted based on boats' PHRF ratings. Typically two races are run per day.
Wednesday night races are Pursuit Racing with staggered start times based on PHRF ratings. The race lasts one hour and whoever is in front at the end wins.
