I think its the first weekend in April this year. I'll probably be there on one boat or another if I'm not working. Its a much more subdued event these days compared to a few years ago... some may see that as a good thing I guess.

I think it's one race from Wrest Point in Hobart down to Dennes Point (tip of north Bruny). Then another race from Quarrantine Bay or thereabouts and around that region of the channel.

Good one, you should have a good weekend! I thought about entering Mawson, but I'm not quite there yet with the boat prep. Maybe next year!
